Is Taokaenoi Seaweed Halal?
MUSHBOOH
This crispy seaweed is mainly seaweed and oils, but the flavour enhancer pair INS627 and INS631 needs checking because these ribonucleotides can come from yeast or fish, but may also be made from animal sources. Ask Taokaenoi whether INS627 and INS631 are from yeast, fish, or another halal-suitable source; a clear halal mark would also settle it.
