That little K in the circle not only means Kosher, it also means Kwality.

Couple of things - You are assuming that all Jews and Muslims follow the dietary laws of their faith. Some Jews follow Kosher laws (Old Testament Dietary Laws followed by some Jews and early christians) and some Muslims follow Dietary laws (Halal found in the Koran). Both laws have ancient roots and are designed to preserve the health and well being of the people by restricting foods and sometimes drinks ( Halal = no alcohol) considered at the time to be unhealthy for the individual.
However, Jews and Muslims are a diverse group of individuals with varying degrees of faith, are multi-national,multi-cultural and have different adherence to their version of their faith of choice.
Also, there are many cultural jews and muslims in the United States who have a jewish or muslim identity but are non-religous or are even an atheist.
So, you can not broad brush the question by classifying all jews and All muslims together, very diverse group of people.
Not all Jews and not all Muslims follow the dietary laws, most in fact do not.
Now to your question, should people(meaning non-jews or non-muslims) not consume food with a kosher symbol, and I would assume also is Halal compliant.
I am puzzled by your question. 1) you seem to be suggesting that you boycott Kosher or Halal food because some Jews or Muslims would not eat at In-N-Out Buger because they put christian biblical quotes on the wrappers. Frankly, I have never noticed this when I have eaten there. However if what you say is true why wouldn't a Jew or Muslim that are non-kosher or Halal eat at the restaurant just because somebody thinks they are sharing the word? Jesus was in fact a jew remember. It would be hardly a care at all to most Jews and Muslims what the wrapper says in terms of spreading biblical quotes....who cares.
And, shame on you for implying that you should boycott food presumably made by Muslim and Jews to serve dietary compliant Muslims or Jews to retaliate because they could possibly boycott In-N-Out due to wrapper language. Is this in the spirit of Jesus....most definetly not. You are somewhat unchristian for even suggesting this in your question.....again practice the positive aspects of Chritainity and not be a christian bigot running a small crusade on behals of In-N-Out....pretty sorry state of mind.
And while you consider this.....learn a bit more about other religions before you write a question exposing your near illiterate and ignorant point of view...again shame on you.
Hope this answers your question....and ask your religous leader about this response....if he is educated he will agree.
Once again...Jesus was born Jewish and never talked harmful words or thoughts like in your question....time to get educated.

I seriously doubt any Jew that I have ever known would not go to this restaurant for that reason? Whattya think, they are extremists? I am unable to state with clarity what a Muslims stance may be as to this question, but will only assume from the Muslims that I have known personally, that they wouldn't give a care less what is on a cup, or wrapper either, if the food their religion requires inside these food/drink holders, is appropriate. Boycott whatever you wish. I doubt it will effect the religious beliefs, or practices of dining out in a HUGE way, of either religion. God is God (Or Allah) and the economy is dictated by many facets. But I think your question is bizarre.

I think there is a difference between a symbol that indicates if food is kosher, which is purely fa matter of convenience to make it easy to recognize what foods are ok for religious Jews to eat, and putting religious messages on wrappers for hamburgers.

I think this is overreactive thinking - Jews can't have an IN-N-OUT burger?
People have their faith but are not that legalistic.
I'm a Christian - I like Hebrew National hot dogs and would never think I am offending my faith.
Lighten up.

sorry I have never heard of it, but I bet many Jews do go there, granted some including myself would not but not because who owns it but because its not Kosher.

i've never heard of it, but i probably would not go to it do it its lack of kosherness and also for the fact that it openly proseletyzes, and i am not going to use my money to support an evangelical organization, since i despise evangelism.

I've only been there one or twice; never noticed.
FYI for those who don't know - it's a western chain.
