## Description

Taste Halal is an AI-powered halal scanner that helps Muslims verify products by analyzing ingredient lists from photos or text. It reads ingredients with AI, checks against a database of over 9,500 ingredients (including E-numbers), and returns a clear halal, haram, or mushbooh status with explanations from Islamic scholars.

With 18+ languages, barcode scanning and gallery import, and educational fatwas, it's travel-friendly and shopper-friendly. Final halal decisions rest with personal religious authorities.
