Halal Cereal

We ran 987 cereal through our halal rules: 24 pass, 12 need a label check, and 2 don't make it.

Most plain cereals pass. The usual blockers are marshmallow pieces and gelatin-coated clusters; a few fortified boxes also use vitamin D3 of animal origin. If a box lists gelatin without naming the animal, we say uncertain, not yes.
