All Ben & Jerry’s ice creams are suitable for Vegetarians, i.e. we do not use any meat products, including gelatine, etc.
We use the European Vegetarian Union logo on most of our flavours as the ingredients are all suitable for vegetarians and made using only free range eggs.
However, 5 of our current flavours have marshmallow / brownies / chocolatey baked goods that have been sourced from the US. Whilst these are suitable for Vegetarians, we don’t use the European Vegetarian Union logo on them. ”

Calf Rennet Clarification:
Rennet per se, is not impermissible.
It is permissible to eat cheese which has rennet from calf rennet though
praiseworthy to refrain from due to a slight difference of opinion viz:
Is Whey Rennet Haraam? (no!)
Alcoholic Flavourings Clarification:
Alcohols
used as a carrier for food colourings and flavourings are permissible
as long as they are not sourced from dates or grapes.
By: Shaykh Asif of Halal or Haram
