HOW ARE THEY MADE?
The basic ingredients in most Frito-Lay snack chips are vegetable oil (corn, sunflower), potatos or corn, and salt. Seasoned products—those that are coated in a flavoring—may contain pork enzymes in addition to herbs, cheese and other seasonings.
Frito-Lay's web site[1] states that they use enzymes from pigs (porcine enzymes) in some of their seasoned snack chip products to develop 'unique flavors'.
-- Scroll down to see SPOTLIGHT HALAL's review of Doritos, Cheetos, Sun Chips and other Frito-Lay brand snack chips!! --
Enzymes are proteins that catalyze—increase the rates of—bio-chemical reactions in living organisms, whether animal or plant. Though enzymes facilitate chemical reactions on molecules, they themselves are not chemically altered (changed) by these reactions. Nor are they consumed (used up) by the reactions.[2]WHAT ARE ENZYMES?

HOW WE DID IT:
Our goal was to compile as thorough a list of Frito-Lay brand snacks as possible, identifying which snacks are made with pork or pig enzymes. Frito-Lay devotes a section of their web site to inform customers with 'special diets' about their products.Frito-Lay does not specifically identify which of their products contain pork enzymes; they identify which ones do not. We found four lists that interested us:
- Seasoned Products Made Without Porcine Enzymes; 4
- Frito Lay Canada Seasoned Products Made Without Porcine Enzymes;5
- Products Certified Kosher – Triangle K;6
- Products Certified Kosher – Orthodox Union7
WHAT DOES PORK(?) MEAN?
| PORK(?) is the rating that SPOTLIGHT HALAL give to any food that likely contains pork or a pig-derived product. | |
| PORK is the rating that we give to any food that always contains pork or a pig-derived product. | |
| HALAL(?) is the rating that we give to food that commonly contains meat from a halal animal that may not have been zabiha-slaughtered. Also, to food containing cheese possibly made with animal rennet. | |
| HALAL is the rating that we give to food that is always halal. |
"?" prompts you to take a second look at foods that you otherwise may not have suspected. Ask informed questions of your waiter when dining out. Take a closer look at the Ingredients list on food packaging. SPOTLIGHT HALAL rates some Frito-Lay brand snack products as PORK(?) because pork enzymes are used to develop 'unique flavors.'
At SPOTLIGHT HALAL, our Guiding Principle is to provide the diverse Muslim communities living in Western countries with practical information about the wide range of food choices they face on a daily basis, but from an Islamic perspective. We don’t say a food is haram or halal; we say: "This food is made with alcohol and pork," or, "That food normally contains chicken."
