For those who loves chocolate Mars.. It's a non-halal product..?

MARS chocolate lovers.. Masterfoods owner had stated that it had started to use rennet ( the inner, or mucous, membrane of the fourth stomach young ruminant such as calf and pork) to produce its chocolate products effective on 1 May 2007.
Since I am shocked and had just aware bout this recently (hehe) and would like to share to those who are non-vegetarian about the ingredients of this product.

Also there's been rumours that below are all the Masterfoods Company that are no longer halal:
. Bounty
· Celebrations
· Dove Chocolate
· Flyte
· Galaxy
· Kudos (North America)
· Lockets
· M-Azing (North America)
· Maltesers
· M&M's
· Mars Bar
· Mars Delight
· Milky Way
· Minstrels ( UK only)
· Mars Planets (newly inroduced in UK )
· Skittles
· Snickers (The top-selling candy bar in the United States . Known in the UK as Marathon until 1990.)
· Starburst (Originally Opal Fruits in the UK .)
· 3 Musketeers ( North America )
· Topic
· Twix
· Snicker's Marathon Energy Bar
· AquaDrops


well, it's just something that I want to share with you guyz.. As a muslim we should always be cautious about the food we consume... Sorry if I provide you guyz with a wrong info..
