I recently found out that some of the products made in the US contain a pork enzyme. Some are called glycerin which is used mostly in lotions. My question is does anyone know if this to be true and where can I find information on products that are indeed Halal or Haram? I called one of the companies that listed the ingredient glycerin and they said that it is possible that it is derived from pork but wasn't exactly sure if it was. It seems as if there are hidden pork enzymes in products as well because I called the number for Frito Lays and asked if there was pork in the hot cheetos and she stated that they used to use a pork enzyme to make the cheese but no longer do that and sent me to the website that contains a list of products that do NOT contain the pork enzyme. Anyone else here of these things?
