Is M&M's Salted Caramel Halal?
HALAL
Vanilla extract is traditionally made by steeping vanilla in roughly one-third alcohol; an alcohol-free vanilla or plain vanilla flavouring declaration would settle the question.
Hanafi, Jafari, Hanbali — their opinion: the tiny trace cannot intoxicate, so it is allowed.
Maliki — their opinion: alcohol-carried flavouring makes the food impure, so it should be avoided; Shafi — their opinion: any liquid intoxicant is not allowed, so it should be avoided.
