Doritos contain MSG (monosodium glutamate) which is


considered haraam unless certified from halal sources.
MSG can be derived from pork and from other animals
that have not been slaughtered according to halal rules.
Furthermore some consider MSG to be haraam even if
derived from halal or vegetarian sources because of its
alleged negative health effects:

Are Doritos halal? Why or why not?

Is Cheddar Cheese halal or haram? If so, why?

Several of these "questions" have been posted lately,


all by an Anonymous person, all with the same
structure. I'm not sure if someone is actually really
confused about food products or if this is part of a joke
I'm not in on. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

So to answer your question, Doritos chips typically


don't contain pork-derived animal products if you're in
the U.S. If not, then they definitely don't contain any.

Information can be validated on: Doritos - Wikipedia

Let me introduce you to the Blanket rule of Islam.

Anything that is not haram in worldly matters is halal


and Anything that is not halal in religious matters is
haram.

From this it is safe to say Cheetos™ is Halal.

But I won't recommend eating it because of this…

Check the packet to see what the ingredients are, on


all food stuffs, as pig products find their way into
many items. If no pork fat in them, then it is dependent
on the filling.

However, it should be remembered that in many cases,


the chemical composition of some organic products
remains the same whether it comes from pigs, cows or
sheep, and the only reason why they might come from
one or the other is the availability.

Related Is it okay for a dog to eat Doritos?


I wouldn’t give it to them as a normal thing, as in all the
time. Dogs have livers that are sensitive to a lot of
things. That being said though, dogs are much like their
humans: Moderation usually doesn’t cause too many
problems.

Originally Answered: Does Doritos have pork?

Unless their is some hidden pork in the flavoring


powder (proprietary formulation) then what you have in
Doritos is wet ground maize, salt, and water for the
chips. They are fried in a veggie oil so no lard there.

I’m basing this on a factory tour while doing a job


interview for a position in a Doritos plant.

Related What Doritos have pork in them?


I'm not sure which flavors contain pork rennet, but I can
tell you which do not (and instead use other, often non
vegan but kosher / halal substitutes).

Doritos products without pork rennet include Cool


Ranch, Dinamitas, Flamas, Poppin' Jalapenos, Nacho
Cheese and Nacho Cheese for Taco Bell, Salsa Verde
and Salsa Flavored, Reduced Fat Cool Ranch and
Nacho Cheese, Supreme Cheddar, Tapatio and Toasted
Corn.

They should be. It is scandalous to use non-Halal meat
but it does happen. I don't know of a single halal-style
place in the world (akin to kosher-style) - and I have

Related Are Doritos vegan?


The Spicy Sweet Chili flavor is vegan. That will not
make it healthy; but no cheese in there. They’re also
crazy-delicious. I might suggest a substitute, however:
Bearitos and Earth Balance both make vegan and more
natural “cheese” flavored crunch snacks, if that is your
thing.

Ingredients.

Corn (Maize), Vegetable Oils (Corn, Sunflower,


Rapeseed, in varying proportions), Chilli Heatwave
Flavour [Sugar, Flavourings (contains Soya, Wheat),
Hydrolysed Soya Protein, Acidity Regulators (Sodium
Acetates), Flavour Enhancers (Monosodium Glutamate,
Disodium 5'-Ribonucleotides), Onion Powder, Salt,
Garlic Powder, Acids (Citric Acid, Malic Acid),
Potassium Chloride, Soybean, Wheat, Colour (Paprika
Extract)].

Looks halal to me.

(I am not an authority, but it appears to be completely


vegetarian with no alcohol, and therefore also halal.)

Enjoy. Assuming you also like the flavour.
