Halal Food

Australia is quite Muslim-food friendly regarding meat production, however, it is important to look for halal certification on grocery items that contain gelatine, and meat products. We have listed here a range of halal groceries and the market that sells the things you require (download here). The file also consists of all things that you need from the market and groceries, the price range and its distance from Campus. 

When shopping for halal chicken, at your local grocery keep an eye open for Lilydale and Steggles chicken as they both have certified halal products. On their website, you can find a list of products certified by The Australian Federation of Islamic Councils (AFIC). In addition, most Coles supermarkets in Canberra have a meat produce section where you can find affordable, halal meat. 

There is a misconception that candy and lollies containing Beef gelatine are halal, this may be true in other countries where halal meat is most easily accessible and the norm, however as we do not live in a Muslim country this is not the case.
