Is Cheddar Melted Cheese Halal?
MUSHBOOH
It is processed cheddar cheese, and its rennet source is not stated; a microbial, vegetable, or halal rennet declaration would settle it.
Hanafi — their opinion: rennet remains permissible even when the animal’s death is not confirmed, so it is allowed.
Shafi, Maliki, Jafari, Hanbali — their opinion: rennet should come from a halal-slaughtered animal or a microbial source, so it should be avoided here.
