eHalal.io, a platform for Halal-certified products, has announced the removal of all Dr. Oetker products from its platform. This decision comes in response to Dr. Oetker’s close business relationship with Israel and its ongoing sales to Israel, which have led to its inclusion in the global Muslim boycott list.Dr. Oetker is a German multinational food company known for its wide range of products, including baking powder, cake mixes, yogurts, frozen pizzas, and more. With a significant global presence, the company sales food items to Israel.Dr. Oetker continues to conduct business in Israel, a country subject to widespread boycotts due to its ongoing aggression in Palestine (Gaza and the West Bank), as well as in Lebanon and Syria.Dr. Oetker’s history dates back to the German Nazi regime, during which the company was complicit in the oppressive systems of the time. Given the current Pro Zionist stance of the German government toward the conflicts in Gaza, the West Bank, Syria, and Southern Lebanon, Dr. Oetker’s continued operations in Israel are seen as deeply problematic.Consumers are encouraged to avoid purchasing Dr. Oetker products and to support brands that prioritize ethical practices and human rights. By standing together, we can send a powerful message to corporations that profit from oppression and injustice.
