Skittles Canada uses gelatin from Beef. So it would be hands off to vegetarians and anyone who would not eat halal beef (I do not know if the beef might be kosher, one can just go to their website and ask them)...<BR/><BR/>Some people consider kosher to be equal to halal, but there are some differeneces between Kosher and Halal; Fish needs to be Kosher while any fish is considered halal regardless. Then I'm not sure of this but I also read that slaughterhouses can be made kosher (the rabbi praying over it), rather than every individual cut, while for Halal, it has to be every animal slaughtered.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12427312.post-47318738733135473502007-09-10T02:53:00.000-04:002007-09-10T02:53:00.000-04:00asmaa, who is this rizwan? dude sounds kinda weak....asmaa, who is this rizwan? dude sounds kinda weak. and i am sorry that he must liven up his meagre existence with a mere packet of multi-coloured skittles. how utterly pitiful indeed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12427312.post-50269715338162976962007-09-10T01:19:00.000-04:002007-09-10T01:19:00.000-04:00Hajera, come up with something better than that.Ri...Hajera, come up with something better than that.<BR/><BR/>Rizwan, sounds good.
