What needs attention

  • DoubtfulFlavourings

    The word "flavouring" does not say what a flavour is made from or dissolved in. Most are plant-based or synthetic, but some are carried in alcohol or glycerol of unstated source, and a few contain animal ingredients. Doubtful unless the pack says plant-based or alcohol-free, or shows a halal logo.

  • DoubtfulGelatine

    Gelatine can be made from pigs (haram), cattle (halal only if the animals were slaughtered correctly) or fish (halal). When the pack says only "gelatine" the source is not known, so it is doubtful. Pork gelatine is haram; fish gelatine and halal-certified beef gelatine are not.
