This brand has been listed as a Boycott Brand by the Witness. You can read more information here: Walls Ice Creams | Israel Boycott Guide | by The Witness

We spoke to Walls/Magnum on 17th May 2021 and can confirm that the Vienetta ice creams are halal.

Any emulsifier like E471 (mono and diglycerides of fatty acids) is derived from a plant source not from animal sources. Previously Walls had told us some products contain e471 from animal sources.

Further, Ice creams do not contain Calf Rennet, but do contain whey. Magnum cannot guarantee that there is no rennet residue in the whey. According to the Hanafis, Rennet is permissible. This is also why the products are unsuitable for vegetarians. Please read our post on Calf Rennet in Islam.

Please note the Ben and Jerrys range are certified halal by HFA and are suitable for Vegetarians. Please also be aware that some of the Ice Creams contain alcohol. All of the Breyers Delight are halal.

  1. Then why do they not show it on the vegetarian list on the walls site if there’s no animal based product in there?

  2. At the bottom there’s a section that says “The following products are haram” yet the products are in a green box that says “Halal”. Could you clarify whether it’s Halal or Haram?
