Is Hot Cheese Chips Halal?
MUSHBOOH
The cheddar and Romano cheese list enzymes, but the label does not say whether those enzymes are microbial or animal rennet. Disodium inosinate and disodium guanylate also have a source question, so we mark this as doubtful. A halal mark or a manufacturer reply confirming microbial or vegetarian enzymes would resolve it.
