Is Almond Pastry Halal?
HALAL
The emulsifiers sodium stearoyl-2-lactylate and mono- and diglycerides can come from plant or animal fat, and the label gives no source; a plant-source or vegetarian claim would settle this.
Jafari — their opinion: an unstated source need not be investigated, so these emulsifiers are allowed.
Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali — their opinion: the fat could come from pork, so without a plant or halal source it should be avoided.
