Q: 28 – Title: If a pack of noodles says "beef flavor" in the ingredients, do we assume its artificial? Usually, if it is real beef, the ingredients would say "beef extract." So could we eat the noodles if it only says "beef flavor."?

Answer
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh
In issues of halal and haram, one should exercise extreme precaution. One should not act on assumption. We advice you get clarity on the issue from the company directly.
And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
