To all Wrigley Chewing Gum lovers, it is not halal anymore. Read below e-mail from Wrigley to Islamic News and Information Network editor who asked the company if it uses any animal-derived ingredients (Pig Fat) in the manufacturer of its gum.
Dear Hameed:
Thank you for visiting our web site, Wrigley.com, to ask if we use any animal-derived ingredients in the manufacturer of Wrigley's gum. We appreciate your interest in our product.
At one time, Wrigley products were made with vegetable-or mineral-derived softening ingredients.
However, the availability of these types of softeners decreased several years ago when major sources closed their manufacturing facilities.
Since we can no longer guarantee that all Wrigley brands from all of our factories will always be made with vegetable-or mineral-derived softeners, our products may not always be acceptable for your diet.
We're sorry that you may not be able to chew Wrigley's gum, but we appreciate your contacting us so that we can give you the facts.
Sincerely yours,
Denise Young
