Now we know that…
There have been many incidents where food
products mislabelled as “Halal” misleading
Muslim consumers. After analysis of few
studies, we can conclude:-
Have you encountered into
any similar event to these?
GETTING truly halal-certified
products can be quite a
challenge for many Muslims,
especially when overseas.
Eg – Seoul, Korea/ Shenzen, China /
Phuket, Thailand
There was widespread mislabelling of Halal chicken.
The addition of water to ‘pump up’ chicken was a common
practice over 50% of the chicken weight was added water.
The water used in “pumping-up” the chicken was found to
contain proteins to aid the retention of water in the
carcasses, these proteins were of porcine and bovine origin.
Additives used in chicken were often not included on labels.”
