MUSHBOOH

E476 is an emulsifier whose fat may come from plants or animals, including pork; the label gives no source, and no labelling law requires it to be declared. A plant-based or vegetarian claim would settle it.

Jafari — their opinion: an unstated source does not need investigation, so the product is allowed.

Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali, Ibadi — their opinion: the fat could be pork, so a plant or halal source is needed and it should be avoided without one.
