Kosher foods are those that meet certain criteria of Jewish law. Invalidating characteristics may range from the presence of a mixture of meat and milk, to the use of produce from Israel that has not been tithed properly, or even the use of cooking utensils which had previously been used for non-kosher food

Kosher food is when you cook food in accordance to Jewish law. Meaning especially no pig period, and no meat and cheese in the same meal!
KOSHER means:
1. Judaism.
1. Conforming to dietary laws; ritually pure: kosher meat.
2. Selling or serving food prepared in accordance with dietary laws: a kosher restaurant.
2. Slang.
1. Legitimate; permissible: “consolidating noneditorial functions of the papers, which is kosher” (Christian Science Monitor).
2. Genuine; authentic.
tr.v., -shered also -shered, -sher·ing -sher·ing, -shers -shers.
To make proper or ritually pure.
[Yiddish kosher, from Ashkenazi Hebrew kóšer, from Hebrew kāšēr, fitting, proper, from kāšēr, to be fitting, to succeed.]

Jewish food prepared by certain religious beliefs. If foods touch it isn't considered kosher.

IN addition to the information from the other answerers...
No pork and no shellfish because they are considered the earth's garbage disposals.
Only clean and properly slaughtered animals are allowed.
A meal that contains more than 1 type of animal meat would be unkosher as would be sharing dairy and meat at the same time.

kosher food is food that is allowed to be eaten. kosher means "pure", this is because kosher food doesnt have so much bacteria, unlike unkosher food.

It is food that follows Jewish eating regulations. There are many different ones the food must follow but the main thing is no cheese and meat in the same meal.

The descriptive term in Judaism for food and other objects that are clean according to its laws. These laws are contained in the Torah and forbid, for example, the eating of pork or shellfish, the mixing of dairy products and meat, and certain methods of slaughtering animals.

You could read Leviticus and find your answers. That's the Martha Stewart section of the OT.
Or, you could search the other hundreds of times that this question has been asked and answered here.
