Okay people, I don't care if it's relevant! I'm curious!!! Besides if no one ever took the time to consider things others don't it would be a boring world!

Don't know but here is a thought about kosher foods that would help you.


KOSHER - Of Food or premises in which food is sold, cooked or eaten fulfilling the requirements of JEWISH LAW.

The law of clean and unclean meats can be found in the book of Leviticus 11:. Yahweh gave us meats that are clean or healthy for us to eat, this is what the term clean meats refer to. Jews have created a word that many think is the proper Hebrew term for clean meats. This word as you may know is Kosher. Kosher is not the Hebrew word for clean meats, it doesn't refer to the laws of clean and unclean meats. Kosher refers to the way the animal is slaughtered, and how to drain a majority of it's blood. They have Kosher pigs, in fact the state of Israel has one of the largest pig farms in the world.

Leviticus 11:7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.
8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.

Any animal can be Kosher as long as it's slaughtered according to the Jewish law. Kosher comes from the Jewish Talmud. Just because you see Kosher on a food label does not mean that product contains 100% clean meat. All it means it that the animal used for that product was slaughter in a certain way that the rabbi's approved of.

as usual TheBlackHebrew dose not know what he is talking about.

of the amount of American Jews that I would say keep Kosher I would say about 12% with many more keeping kosher only at home and eating non kosher out. Or not mixing meat and milk etc.
