Is Ramen Noodle Soup Chicken Flavor halal?
Ramen Noodle Soup Chicken Flavor (Maruchan) is mushbooh — doubtful — on our automated check. At least one entry on its record is a substance whose raw material can be animal-derived, and the label does not say which source was used, so the answer depends on information the packaging does not carry. The check read its ingredient list — which opens with ENRICHED WHEAT FLOUR (WHEAT FLOUR, NIACIN, REDUCED IRON — together with the additives declared on the pack, E319, E452, E621, E627, and resolved every E-number against our additive dataset. A halal mark on this specific pack, or the manufacturer confirming the raw material behind the flagged substance, would settle it — the doubt is about sourcing, not about the substance being forbidden.
