All current Mike and Ike candies do not contain any animal derived ingredients in them:
Dear Lazeena,
There are no animal derived ingredients in our MIKE AND IKE® Brand Candies.
Regards, "SAL"

Hi I'm not Muslim but I am a Vegetarian in the making and this is very helpful to me. I never thought so many chips or breads and so on could even contain animal derived ingredients! I really appreciate your hard work in this and look forward to learning more about these products! Good luck with everything -Simone
Why does the sale rep have to be a muslim? they work just to answer customer inquiries and have access to all the product info...if theyre lying what else can we do but they risk million dollar lawsuits if they do lie so i dont see that as possible
as-salaam alaikum,Mike and Ike contain 'shellac' as a glazing agent - and i have found that shellac is not halal,due to the nature of 'shellac'(the process it goes thru where some insect residue inevitably gets thru)- can anyone clarify this? jazakhallah (Rehana UK)
I'm just another Muslim who wastes time in the supermarket looking dumbfounded at ingredients lists as words 20 letters long fly over my head! I have no idea what these words mean, can't you just list GOAT GUTS, BEEF FAT, or CHICKEN GIZZARD on the label? I'm just trying to find the answers we're all looking for by merely contacting these companies myself and asking them, "YO IS THIS HALAL OR NOT?!" =)

Hey, From where did you get this information?
This info is from a sales rep who works at the Mike and Ike Company
Thanks for the Info. But who is this sales rep? Is he a Muslim and from where did he get this info? Any Documents. JazakALLAH

Muslim consumer group says it's haram!
Don't believe this website. We don't know where you got the information!
So it's halal or not
I am confused because of glazing agent.
Do mike and ikes contain gelatine
It is not halal due to the alcohol used to break down "shellac" the glazing agent
Don’t believe this website! Mike and Ike have Red 40 which is a red colour made from an insect. Red 40 is haram.
