[net.religion.jewish] Kashruth and the "Real World"

rib@pyuxdd.UUCP (RI Block) (04/04/84)

It *is* difficult to compy with the demands of kashruth
in a non-Jewish world, but it is possible.

The most positive comment I can make, is to search out
types of food which cover basic nutritional needs and are essentially
kosher by their nature. In many areas of the US, these include Yogurt,
canned fish, "Wasa" bread, milk, cerial, uncut (if possible) green vegitables.

For most of the area of the US, eating a real mean in a real restaurant
means waiting for a trip to NYC, Miami, or Toronto.

Eating kosher in general suroundings is not glamorous, but I don't recall
any tenet of Judaism that says Mitzvot = glamour.

What is "wasa" bread ?
Re : canned fish - you must also make certain that the fish is a kosher fish
and was prepared under proper supervision.


A Gutten Shabbos to all.
