Japanese KitKat Varieties Marked ‘Haram LV2’ On Verification App, Igniting Malaysian Debate

A Threads post warning Malaysian Muslims about the halal status of Japanese KitKat products has garnered nearly 100,000 views, sparking widespread debate about religious dietary compliance and food manufacturing processes.

The post, shared by user @_ju_mira, featured screenshots from the Halal Japan mobile application showing various KitKat flavours—including matcha, yuzu, Tokyo Banana and sakura mochi varieties—all marked with a red “Haram LV2 (Level 2)” designation.

According to the app’s classification system shared in the thread, “Haram LV2” indicates that while the product itself may not contain prohibited ingredients, the production line is contaminated with non-halal animal derivatives.

This differs from “Haram LV1,” which refers to products that directly contain forbidden ingredients such as alcohol, pork or other haram substances.

The app also categorises products into several other levels, including “Halal LV1” for items certified by authorised halal organisations, “Halal LV2” for products free from haram ingredients and made on completely halal production lines, and “Halal LV3” for items produced on shared lines that are properly cleaned before halal production.

The post triggered varied responses from Malaysian Muslims, with some expressing shock at having unknowingly consumed the products.


sos

whatt is this, are we living in MMORPG? Lv1 Lv2 Lv3 LOL

Does these items have Halal certification?

If no , easy right?

Japan is a homogeneous society has huge variety of product SKUs...so many pattern of Kit Kat and Coca Cola for e.g.

M'sia despite being a heterogeneous society only have few variety of Kit Kat and Cola Cola sold. Most just prefer buying that few flavours

for malaysians, everything is basically haram until proven halal

it got so bad, they even ask if a certain fruit is halal or not
bread also they ask halal or not

we are basically way too deep into the rabbit hole until our muslims can't even travel overseas

Congrats muslim

The most fucuk statement I had ever read.

Honestly, when I look at ingredients, I only look for preservatives, biocides and type of sugar used, should I want to check. Otherwise, I just take and pay. Less things to worry and makes life simpler

Haram lvl 1 = Super haram
Haram lvl 2 = More liberal muslim will tutup mata just makan
Halal lvl 1 = Lampu hijau can eat
Halal lvl 2 = Lebih hijau dari hijau
Halal lvl 3 = Hijau paling hijau tak ada lagi hijau dari hijau ini

Seriously a simple halal/non-halal identification should suffice, no need to put rank until like that. Other muslim countries also never heard of such practice
Ini macam Persatuan Pengguna Islam Malaysia (PPIM) punya dream.

Kakaka...haram also got level

Mana punya Islam dia belajar sampai boleh jadi level level macam ni

Ktards semua haram, PuAS semua halal, abis cerita.

tapi warung tepi jalan halal pulak

owai

wtf is this shyt real? Really wanna separate nons classified company?

are we totally lost the plot why the prohibition is there in the 1st place?

Belajar dari kawan baik buat bisnes, likely cut from the same cloth.



p.s. this PPIM video denying GISB relation to Al-Arqam was actually from few years back (2019) before everything blows over,
meaning people already suspected them but PPIM plotek whitewashed it.

Complicit in the kiddy-diddling that happened after that as far as I'm concerned.

Malaysia Muslim best just sit in isolation chamber do nothing.

Don't forget that the air you breath, water you drink, the ground you step on, the wind on your skin is all not certified halal and may come from haram source.

Tak pelik. In this country, Islam pun macam ada kasta. Yang pipit must adhere strictly to religion, yang helang nak rasuah tindas orang pun takpe no one dare to touch.

Just don’t buy imported food. Support local..

Nice.

Is Arab also doing this or has BolehLand outdone Arab?

got level somemore lol

Japanese creativity = come out weird flavours and stuff

You can google Japanese ice cream

for non easy la but non non mesti check baik baik if not tak boleh pigi bulan

Support local not enough, must support local bumiputera only.

Don't know. Don't care. Not my problem.

good
not healthy anyway

when you got nothing to do, you buat sendiri sibok

what app is that ??
i want to download



this will be fun ....

That's why assimilation can never happen. Deny all you want.

Yet every snacks will have a fine print,
May contain nuts and dairy or derivatives of plant or animal of origin.

why harroomm??? got babi minyak?

I just farted after having pork lunch, building needs evacuation now?

Different levels just for own convenience

I frequently buy the kit kat with Macha, and the dark chocolate version.

Haram for master race only. Everyone else just enjoy like normal.

If boycott and sell cheap, I will sapu all.

Was waiting for someone to point out the contradiction. No wonder this Type always kompius.

Mak dia hijau level what?

That is some stupid reverse levelling

No. Need to burn down building, salt the earth, then rebuild.

<screenshots from the Halal Japan mobile application showing..>

So this is a Japan app, right?
Every country do one app and share screenshots = only own cook raw with no seasonings non marinate etc is not haram

Raw also must see source who breeder, farmer, planter, produce etc

A waiter dun even know what yumgarchan rum or gin or vodka is in your mojito and pussylicking ball of cock-with-tails.

Dun blame cashier. Blame sendiri got so much cilaka issue with life. Or dun get educated. Like that bovine or swine or free range all meaning tatau, only know how to go mampoi is good.

Rabbit candy. Very famous.

If no halal logo don't buy and eat.. simple.

Takkan belajar pandai2 Tak pakai otak?

good news for me. more stock. hopefully lower price.

it has levels of haram-ness now?

wow...fantastique!!

o2 also haram since it is mixed.

Then why still go Japan. Just stay away la safer ...

Makan je KitKat Malaysia.

Apa susah.

why terkejut? this is known for Malaysian muslim from before don don donki came in malaysia.
even that time selling in Aeon and shojikiya also got say non halal
fb and halal travel app from more than 10 years ago also already say

They left out other classification: Muslim ownership.

Actually how does their categorization map with Msia version of Halal Certification?

I assume Msia one shall be Halal L3, other than that considered non halal.

Tell me ur taliban without telling me ur taliban

Fifteen yrs ago and beyond this wasnt an issue at all

Then dont do blood transfusion la kat hosp
Sbb penderma tu makan bab kan walaupun sama blood

Some more got leveling wan.

I thought it's either halal or haram only.

Wah now have multiple level of halal? Since when?

So lucky i dont to live with this fear of eating haram food.
Cukur aman makmur

lu tak suka lu forever jangan go japan there holiday! bodoh!

This is when you tried to be "the big man in the sky".

Not surprised. A lot of food had Gelatin in it and Gelatin derived from hehe

Useless waste of sperm

More important things to think about

this is what we call not learned
it is not the pig is poisonous to muslim. it is just God forbid muslim to eat it but you still can eat it. it is just sinning.
pig is not like superman's kryptonite.

and in matter between life and death in Islam, God always prioritize preserving life and if you need to eat pig to survive, then it is not sinning.

Just eat the Sakura one, while reading this thread.

Jangan persoal!

So which level of haram/halal that you can accept?
