A choice to eat Kosher, to eat what you want to eat and not to swallow just any food to fill you up. Being a Jew and wanting your Jewish identity affirmed and reaffirmed, mouth watering for Kosher meat, where there is no Kosher meat there is no sustenance, expensive, highest costing food on the shelves. Why does it cost so much, even a head of lettuce now is excessive in price, to eat vegan even without eating the Kosher meat but eating Kosher veggies is costly.
To eat what is good for you, to want to stay steady and persevere your Jewish eating. To have a Rabbi who encourages Jewish Kosher eating, the law being in Leviticus in the Torah to not eat pork, to not eat non-Kosher foods.
To be served what you crave that is both Kosher and healthy. Not going away hungry, more to take home, Challah bread and the Motzi blessing.
Apple or grape juices, red or white sweet Kosher wines, riding along a riverboat protected like in the belly of a whale, not eating non-Kosher shellfish, shrimp no more.
Kosher eating utensils, clean meat plate never to hold diary foods. Clean dairy foods plates never to hold meat foods.
Stone soup? No thanks. Chicken noodle or matzah ball soup? Yes, please.
Kosher Liver Dumpling Soup? Yummy! The foods blessed by Rabbis, utensils boiled in hot water.
Animals not slaughtered without being blessed. The blood removed from the meat, all meats being bloodless. Salted well for preservation.
Fish? Of course! Heavy on Omega 3? Sounds good to me!
