Consuming bacon flavoured items

· 18 Shaʻban 1441 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Is it makruh tahreemi, makruh tanzeehi, halaal, or haram to eat bacon flavour crisps if all of the ingredients are halaal?

Answer

The name itself is disgusting. It is quite shameful for a muslim to even use that name and eat of that. If the food was flavoured with excreta but it is said that all the ingredients are halaal, will you eat it?

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
