Golden Churn Halal?

Kjee tak tahu samada mahu percaya ataupun tidak tetapi terpulanglah setelah baca mesej yang Kjee terima ini. Apapun, kalaulah ia halal, pasti berita ini cukup menggembirakan ramai pengusaha kek Melayu yang menggunakan butter jenama yang mereka gelar cap tong,  untuk membuat kek lapis Sarawak.

Mengikut kenyataan yang dikeluarkan oleh syarikat itu, setiap produk keluaran mereka harus menepati syarat ketat yang dikeluarkan oleh pihak berkuasa negara2 yang mengimport produk mereka. Mereka mengesahkan butter Golden Churn (cap tong ) itu menepati segala keperluan yang ditentukan oleh pihak berkuasa tersebut.

Mereka khabarnya hanya menggunakan susu daripada kualiti terbaik, pepejal susu (tiada lelemak), air dan garam. Selain itu, tiada pewarna atau bahan tambahan yang tidak dibenarkan.

Pihaknya sedang berura2 mengambil tindakan undang2 untuk membanteras penyebaran fitnah dan khabar angin mengenai produk mereka. Mereka menjamin produk mereka halal dan daripada kualiti terbaik.



Golden Churn is a Certified Halal Butter without doubt

Golden Churn Certified Halal Butter
It has been brought to my attention that there are false claims about our Golden Churn Certified Halal Butter brand originating from West Malaysia.

I can reassure all our valued customers and consumers that both Ballantyne factories in Australia & New Zealand are Certified Halal by Halal certification authorities for all our butter brands we produce and distribute.

It is important to understand that each delivery of butter out of Australia and New Zealand carries mandatory quality standards from relevant Government Food Authorities including Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ), the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service, (AQIS) and the New Zealand Food Safety Authority (NZFSA) in additional to strict Halal certification requirements. We confirm that our Golden Churn butter complies with the requirements of these authorities.

Ballantyne only use high quality milk to make cream that is churned into butter Ingredients are, Cows Milk, Milk solids (non fat), Moisture and 1.5-2% salt. No other additions, colours or preservatives are permitted. We are seeking legal advice to put an end to these false claims.

I wish to again reassure our loyal customers that these claims are false and our products are of the highest quality and Certified Halal.
