It has been ascertained that chocolate contains insect and rodent filth.

Question

It has been ascertained that chocolate contains insect and rodent filth. Is it permissible to eat chocolate?

Answer

The insect and rodent filth should be sufficiently nauseating to deter one from consuming the chocolate. Furthermore, even if this filth is not in chocolates, the chocolates will still not be permissible. Chocolate contains a number of ingredients. Some are mushtabah and some are haraam.
