Abstract

This study aims to find out how the general pattern of family communication is in choosing halal food by Muslims. In Thailand, Muslims are considered as an ethnic minority and have restrictions in choosing food. The way to choose halal food is very important to Muslims. The factor in choosing halal food is assessed from the communication patterns in the family, namely parents; communication patterns in the family are important for Thai Muslims in choosing halal food. The food is not all halal, some foods are still wrong and have not been able to get halal marks from the related subjects but are also eaten by some Muslims themselves. The method used was a qualitative approach with a case study strategy. Data was collected through interview and direct observation on the research object. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the pattern of communication of Muslim families in Thailand is very important in choosing halal food, not only in the country but also in every place, in order to be aware of choosing halal food. In every family, there are different ways of communicating with family, and there are also some families who cannot communicate well in choosing halal food.
