What do Kosher people eat at McDonald's? Surely they must eat some fast food?

Question

I really apologize if I offended anyone by saying "Kosher people." I did not mean any offense by it at all. I was under the impression that not all Jews were Kosher, so I was just referring to the ones that were. Please don't take offense! I am just trying to learn about the eating habits!

Answer 1

Hey, I don't think your question phrasing was offensive. It's true not everyone who's Jewish keeps kosher, and also there are some people who interpret Jewish dietary laws more strictly than other people. I am not Jewish myself but I've had Jewish friends and acquaintances who observe different levels of strictness, depending on whether they fall on the spectrum from secular people to totally Orthodox and strict and requiring separate utensils and even separate kitchens for meat and dairy foods. Anyway, when I lived in New York State in an area that had a lot of folks who were very super-seriously Orthodox, the highly Orthodox did not eat at McDonald's.

Answer 2

Believe it or not in Israel there are some Kosher McDonalds (they have blue arches instead of golden) being tested.

Answer 3

Ok first of all they're JEWISH, not 'Kosher' people. That was a prejudiced statement. Maybe they belong to a more liberal sect of Judaism that permits them to eat foods prohibited by other sects of Judaism.

Answer 4

Kosher people? Do you mean Jews?

Answer 5

I know that to be kosher, meat and dairy can not touch, so I guess they could have hamburger, F.F, salad, or anything that does not have cheese.

Answer 6

Yeah - they eat at Porky Pig's Jew Food Diner.

Answer 7

It is possible to get by w/o fast food, I do.
