4 ANSWERS


  1. can't eat pork products or crustaceans

    can't mix meat and dairy

    can't eat food that was stored with non-kosher food, cooked in a microwave/oven that is also used for non-kosher food


  2. Of the "beasts of the earth" (which basically refers to land mammals with the exception of swarming rodents), you may eat any animal that has cloven hooves and chews its cud. Any land mammal that does not have both of these qualities is forbidden. The camel, the rock badger, the hare and the pig are not kosher because each lacks one of these two qualifications. Sheep, cattle, goats, deer and bison are kosher.

    Of the things that are in the waters, you may eat anything that has fins and scales. Shellfish such as lobsters, oysters, shrimp, clams and crabs are all forbidden. Fish like tuna, carp, salmon and herring are all permitted.

    For birds, the criteria is less clear. The Torah provides a list of forbidden birds but does not specify why these particular birds are forbidden. All of the birds on the list are birds of prey or scavengers, thus the rabbis inferred that this was the basis for the distinction. Other birds are permitted, such as chicken, geese, ducks and turkeys.

    Of the winged insects, a few are specifically permitted, but the Sages are no longer certain which ones they are, so all have been forbidden. There are communities that have a tradition about what species are permitted, and in those communities some insects are eaten.

    Rodents, reptiles, amphibians, and insects (except as mentioned above) are all forbidden.

    Any product derived from these forbidden animals, such as their milk, eggs, fat, or organs, also cannot be eaten.

  3. Mcdonalds etc

  4. ella basically answer it but I will just mention as well that after having eaten meat, a person keeping kosher will wait anywhere from 3-6 hours before eating dairy. However, after eating dairy they can eat meat right away. Meat and milk cannot be eaten together and kosher families have seperate dishes and sinks for meat and dairy dishes
