Is Hershey's Pastry Halal?
MUSHBOOH
This looks like a filled sweet bakery item. The concern is mono y diglicéridos and poliglicerol de ácidos grasos: these fatty-acid emulsifiers can be made from vegetable oils or animal fat, and the label does not say which. To clear it, look for a halal mark or ask the manufacturer whether both emulsifiers are fully plant-derived; otherwise the safer approach follows “leave what makes you doubt” (Tirmidhi 2518).
