Bismillahi-ar-Rahmani-r-Raheem!
At least in European countries some ingredients are marked only with E-codes. Here are listed all the E-codes that contain pig or other Haram stuff. Remember that gelatin, lecithin and aminoacids are from animal sources. You might find these E-codes from ice cream, candy, cheese, ready made soups, anywhere!Halal ingridients are e.g. soyalecithin and pectins. Those two are from plants. Names are translated as well as I can but please correct my spelling if you can. This data is from Finnish Food Product Office.
