Is Nuremberg Gingerbread Halal?
MUSHBOOH
The label lists lecithins as an emulsifier, but it does not state whether their source is plant-based or animal-derived. The printed ingredients alone cannot settle that source. Contact the manufacturer and ask whether the lecithins are plant-based, or look for an official halal certification mark.
