Question:
What is the ruling on eating these cheeses and types of biscuits that come to us from some communist countries, where we hear many people saying that some meat and pork fat are included in their manufacture without causing harm?
Answer:
This matter, which the people of the country are concerned about, has not been established for us; rather, it is sound, as officials have confirmed. There is no stumbling block for them, nor is there anything wrong with them.
