Is Hushållsost (cheese) Halal?
MUSHBOOH
This mild Swedish cheese lists ystenzym, meaning cheese enzyme, but the label does not say whether it is microbial or from animal rennet. For cheese, that source matters because animal rennet raises a slaughter-source concern. A clear “microbial”, “vegetarian”, or halal-certified rennet statement would remove the doubt; otherwise it is safer to avoid or ask the maker.
