Is Chocolate Chip Buns Halal?
MUSHBOOH
The emulsifiers E471, E472b and E477 may come from plant oils or animal fat, and the label gives no source. EU labels do not have to state the source of these emulsifiers, so the package alone cannot settle it. Ask the manufacturer whether they are plant-based or look for an official halal certification mark.
