As a point of interest there does not seem to be a single
standardized HALAL SYMBOL though there is rather a lot of discussion
about having one. I googled "halal logo".
I also looked for "pork logo". Not much turned up, though there was a
PDF from the Irish Bord Bia (Food Board) which mentioned some sort
of Irish pork logo. I have never seen it. There doesn't seem to be an
international "Warning! Contains Pork!" symbol.
There doesn't seem to be a NUT SYMBOL used to warn that products
contain nuts, though there are many, many references to Sainsbury's
(a British supermarket chain) labelling their peanuts "Warning:
Contains Nuts".
