Is Cheddar Pastry Halal?

MUSHBOOH

The cheddar’s rennet source is not stated, so the label cannot confirm it is halal; a vegetarian claim or microbial-rennet declaration would resolve this.

Jafari — their opinion: an unstated rennet source does not need to be investigated, so it is allowed.

Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali — their opinion: rennet may come from an animal not slaughtered Islamically, so they treat it as doubtful and avoid it.
