MUSHBOOH
It contains E471 emulsifier, whose fat may come from plants or animals, including pork; the label does not state its source. A plant-based declaration or official halal mark would settle it.

Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali, Ibadi — their opinion: the fat could be pork, so a plant or halal source must be confirmed; the manufacturing process does not change its ruling.
