[@halaltrips]

My pleasure 😊

[@tea-chip-cookies]

Growing up I wished to enjoy travelling. In 2014 I had the worst experience in Sicily and it put me off travelling due to harressment bullying and racism from the get go.. As soon as I landed at the airport! It always makes me glad when I see Muslims travelling and having fun, we deserve to be treated like equals.

[@halaltrips]

I hope my guides are helpful to get you back on travelling, a lot more muslim-friendly guides coming out soon insha'allah!

[@salmunnahar6586]

[@halaltrips]

Thanks for watching!

[@Sidrahmoizkhan]

Not all cheese is okay to eat as Muslims. How did you make sure it was okay?

[@NA-wq6qg]

How did you take the corn dog when it fried in the same oil with non-halal food

[@Alinsouth]

I've heard many sweet products contain gelatine which is pork and beef, from a next vlog

[@halaltrips]

Yes, from my other videos in Japan, you’ll see that I specifically check whether places contain Gelatine, also took a local japanese with me, check out my Kyoto video

[@samisalmanshihab]

Can you please write the address of the place

[@JESSROCKEDChannel]

You gotta crank up the volume brother, we can barely hear what youre saying on some parts Also, I was expecting a proper halal meal for lunch or dinner but those are nice to know

[@halaltrips]

Yes for sure, it was one of the first videos I uploaded on this channel so was still figuring out the mic - improved a lot since! Also, many halal lunches and dinner spot in Tokyo and Kyoto on my channel, definitely check those out :)

[@ahmedsallam1426]

Um I have a question is the cheesecake halal I heard they use gelatin to make the cheesecake from it, but the gelatin they use are mostly made from pork have you confirm that it is halal as well

[@halaltrips]

Hey thanks for bringing this up, I was not aware, if you visit could you confirm with them please?

[@mohnabiel]

@@halaltrips and also be careful with those biscuits, most sweet biscuits or wafers in japan are not halal, so you might as well check the Japanese production oreo is halal or not

[@sheikhshakilakhtar1865]

Gelatin is fine.

[@Thekuwiati]

Hey brother, I have a question, how do you know that these restaurants and also the street food is halal?

[@halaltrips]

AssalamuAlykum Brother, for each stall/ restaurant, I ask them directly if any of the foods contain any type of alcohol or meat. Easier when it’s a restaurant, at street food stalls, I take a local colleague with me - I have a video specifically on street coming soon insha’Allah!

[@DOTVGLOBAL]

@@halaltrips Assalamoalaikum Brother. ​Brother are you serious? No offense please. Asking does not make this food halal. Cross contamination is the biggest problem while eating from non muslim cooking place. Pork fats, oils, gelatin, frying process, alcohol, pork essence and pork based ingredients are all hidden elements of these places. Asians or non muslims are famous for adding pig or pork gelatin or pig lard in their bakery products including cakes, crepe, croissant, muffins, whipping cream, ice cream and so on…its painful but a KNOWN TRUTH! Utensils, haram ingredients and pork processing equipment cross contamination and there is so much more to it. So we can not call a restaurant or food halal on the basis of our own judgement. The best thing is to not eat from these non muslim places. I have seen your other vlogs where you are eating from places where Halal logo or sign is displayed or mentioned. Those places are the only places or safest places to eat from. I live in china and we only eat from places owned by muslims or places advertising them as halal eateries. But for safe side we still make sure and ask them if they are really halal or not. One time we found a chinese xinjiang muslim selling pork based sausages in his small bbq shop. He even displayed halal sign on his shop. So in my view the rule of thumb is , first completely avoid eating from non muslims, 2nd do self investigation if the halal place is doubtful. And last but not the least😂 if we can not find halal places anywhere, then just buy some trusted brand packaged junk food or trusted place simple plain food items. Supermarket packaged food showing full ingredients and so many options are always there in countries where we have very few or next to none halal options.

[@halaltrips]

@@DOTVGLOBAL yes I am serious but as it was a quick reply, you may have misunderstood me. I have lived and worked in China too so understand what you are saying and completely agree, it’s important to be careful of cross contamination, it’s also important to strike a middle path. We take our measures and leave the rest to Allah, you shared some great practical tips too. For me for example, I do not eat at places where cross contamination is highly likely and where I can SEE that this will happen or when the menu points me to believe that this is highly likely even if I cannot see, usually at places where things are fried. The corndog place in my video was probably the only time I have ever done this, and in reflection it’s probably best to avoid. That day, I stood there and observed their kitchen for a while and noticed that all orders were of potato corndogs and the meat ones were packed away, I also noticed that usually the filling is completely wrapped and sealed before frying so the oil doesn’t get contaminated. For me, those two observations were enough to order but probably wouldn’t do it again. Where it is unlikely (like a cake shop), I then ask like my video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJ2sh3qmg7eCbc0 where I took a local Japanese speaker to ask thoroughly whether the stalls selling the deserts contained any of the items i previously mentioned. In those places, if I cannot see that cross contamination is likely and get told with CERTAINTY from the staff that it doesn’t contain haram items, then I eat because I have tied my camel and I will not be held accountable if then the owner of the cake shop decides to add a sip of alcohol on the cake slice, so in those cases yes asking does make jt halal for me - but don’t misunderstand me, this doesn’t apply to places where cross contamination is highly likely like in restaurants in China, when I lived there, I lived very similar to how you described. And Allah knows best.

[@hanisu9037]

Regardless of the lovely video, but honestly speaking from experience in my visits halal food is realy very difficult to find in japan in general

[@naturecarousel1656]

Is the audio off??

[@shafiqmirza238]

Hi Salam. For the streamer coffee, is it only at Harajuku or are the other branches okay to consume as well? Thank you

[@halaltrips]

Wasalaam, please ask at every branch if the pastries contain any meat products 🙏 Always best to ask and make sure
