What needs attention
- DoubtfulWhey
Whey comes from cheese making, so the rennet question applies: pig rennet is prohibited, rennet from a correctly slaughtered animal is permitted, and rennet from an animal that was not slaughtered is disputed. The pack rarely says which rennet was used. Doubtful unless it came from cheese made with microbial rennet, or the product has a halal logo.
- DoubtfulRennet
Rennet from pigs is prohibited, and rennet from a correctly slaughtered animal is permitted. Rennet from an animal that was not slaughtered is disputed. Microbial and genetically engineered rennet are permitted. Many cheeses do not say which was used.
