The detail
Opened the IFANCA Halal Shopper's Guide to Ingredients on 2026-10-23. The page states it is not a comprehensive list and does not name raspberry, raspberries, berries, or Rubus. That miss is not a ruling. Raspberry products (jams, yogurts, fillings, sweets, flavourings) carry other ingredients such as gelatin or carmine; check those names on the pack. Raspberry ketone is a separate row. Classification remains insufficient-evidence.
