Is KitKat Halal?
HALAL
The emulsifier 476 can come from plant or animal fat, and the label does not name its source; a vegetarian claim or plant-source note would settle this.
Jafari — their opinion: an unstated source need not be investigated, so it is allowed.
Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali — their opinion: the fat could come from pork, so a plant or halal source must be confirmed and it should be avoided until then.
