Is Perfetti Gum Halal?
HARAM
It contains cochineal (carmine), a red colour made from crushed insects; an official halal mark or a different colour such as a synthetic red would resolve the concern.
Maliki — their opinion: insect-derived colour is allowed because insects have no flowing blood.
Hanafi, Shafi, Jafari, Hanbali — their opinion: colour made from insects is not allowed, so it should be avoided.
