Well , you got two questions , so two answers are needed.
The small hats that you mention are called a yarmulke in Yiddish or a kippa in Hebrew , the purpose is to bring to our consciousness by the sensation that it provides resting on our head that "The Eternal One" is present in our lives and that we should be responsible in our thoughts and actions.
About the kosher question , what kosher means is that the food or something complies with the prescriptions given by Mosha or Moses mainly in the book of Leviticus.

to cover their head. kosher means clean, like the muslims call halal, and they don't eat certain foods, like pork or fish without scales because they are scavengers and thought to be unclean.
