Istifta 83 — Eating & drinking

We enter some super markets in Europe and find meat in tin containers produced by a European company with the writing on the package that conveys the sense of it being “halal” or “slaughtered according to Islamic laws”. Is it permissible to buy and eat such meat?
Answer
The writing [on the package] has no value if it does not lead to certainty [that it is actually halal].
