Is Processed sliced cheese Halal?

MUSHBOOH

This processed cheese uses rennet, but the label does not state whether it is microbial or from an Islamically slaughtered animal. A microbial or vegetable-rennet declaration, vegetarian claim, or official halal mark would settle it.

Hanafi, Jafari, Zaydi — their opinion: rennet remains pure even without confirmed halal slaughter, so it is allowed.

Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali, Ibadi — their opinion: the rennet should come from a halal source, so this should be avoided while its source is unclear.
