Is Cheddar Cheese Popcorn Halal?
MUSHBOOH
This popcorn contains cheddar cheese made with enzymes, so the rennet source is not confirmed; a microbial, vegetarian, or halal-rennet declaration would settle it.
Hanafi, Jafari, Zaydi — their opinion: rennet remains pure even without confirmed Islamic slaughter, so it is allowed.
Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali, Ibadi — their opinion: the rennet should come from a halal source, so this should be avoided until confirmed.
