Opened the IFANCA Halal Shopper's Guide to Ingredients on 2026-11-01. The page states it is not a comprehensive list and does not name cabbage or Brassica. That miss is not a ruling. Coleslaw, sauerkraut or kimchi may carry other ingredients such as dressings, wine or fish sauce; check those names on the pack. Classification remains insufficient-evidence.
