No, Cheetos are generally not considered halal due to the dairy ingredients used, which are not certified halal or kosher.
Here's a breakdown:
-
Dairy Ingredients: The primary concern is the source of the dairy ingredients used in Cheetos. If these ingredients are not certified halal (meaning they don't adhere to Islamic dietary guidelines in their production), the product is considered non-halal.
-
Certification: The reference explicitly states that dairy ingredients are not Halal or kosher certified.
-
Cross-Contamination: There's also a potential risk of cross-contamination during manufacturing, where Cheetos might come into contact with non-halal substances.
Therefore, due to the use of non-halal certified dairy ingredients, Cheetos are typically regarded as non-halal.
