Kosher

I have a lot of friends who are jewish and the way they eat has always interested me. So I asked a couple of them how it was like to eat pretty much only kosher foods, and they said it really wasn’t that bad. For them it’s like second nature, and they never really think anything of it. They told me everything I needed to know about kosher food, and even how its suppose to be made.

Kosher food firstly comes from directly from the torah. One example would be for meat. The only meat that they can eat have to come from animals with cloven hooves and anything that chews the cud. Some examples of these animals would be bulls, cows, sheep and lambs. Which I thought was really interesting, you never really think into someones else religions until they tell you about it. I also think it’s interesting that a single book can tell a certain religion what you can and can’t eat. But then again the bible also does the something. They also told me they couldn’t mix meat and milk together, which blew my mind because I drink milk with pretty much everything. But because the torah says you can’t cook a young animal in the milk of its mother. (Koshercertification) I’m also interested in learning peoples religions, and learning about this one was definitely an eye opener.
