There are vegetarian versions of Tambun biscuits to cater for the veggie Buddhist crowd. However, there won't be any 'halal' certification because those are costly to both obtain and maintain.

The only question is whether or not 'vegetarian' is good enough for you.

Note that the Buddhist veggie crowd are not so fussed about having the kitchen be completely halal though. Its OK that the biscuits are baked in the same place as a kitchen that uses pork lard just as long as the biscuit itself has no meat ingredients.

I wasn't referring to Muslims lar. I was saying that Buddhists do not necessarily mind eating food that is cooked in kitchen with meat in it as long as their own food doesn't contain any meat ingredients. It won't even matter if the utensils have been used to cook meat as long as they were washed beforehand.

Muslims, on the other hand, are not even supposed to be eating food cooked in a kitchen that has pork in it - especially if the utensils have handled pork, and not even after they have been washed.

But of course, some Muslims turn a blind eye to it...this is a personal call...
