Is HI-CHEW Mango Halal?
MUSHBOOH
This candy lists gelatin, but the label does not say whether it is fish, beef, or pork. That source matters: fish gelatin is acceptable, while land-animal gelatin needs halal verification. Look for a halal mark or wording such as fish gelatin, or ask Morinaga/JFC what source they use; for doubtful foods, the safer approach follows Tirmidhi 2518.
