    The basics of Jewish dietary law—the laws of kashrut—are fairly well-known: no pork, no shellfish, no milk and meat together. But there are many, many more laws than that, some of which are unclear.https://trib.al/8lHIVMB

        Jewish dietary law is called Kashrut and is found in the Bible in its majority in Leviticus and Deuteronomy - those two books outline all the animals that cannot be eaten ✡️

        Religious food restrictions are so silly. I like being an atheist. 🙂

        This may be a myth but I have heard the giraffe is kosher. It has cloven hooves/chews the cud. But it’s only kosher when alive, not once dead because no learned rabbi/official slaughterer ever decided how to butcher one in a religiously correct way, so the meat cannot be kosher!
