KOSHER

Kosher in Hebrew literally means “fit” or “acceptable.” When referring to food, it indicates that the food conforms to Jewish laws. One of many myths about “kosher” is that the process consists simply of a Rabbi blessing food. In fact for centuries, the belief in Kashrus (kosher law) has linked and unified Jews throughout the world. A strict and immutable body of laws that clearly delineates those foods that conform to rigid dietary specifications. Kashrus also proscribes which and how animals, fish and birds should be prepared for kosher consumption, cites methods of preparation and processing.

Many consumers consider kosher certification as an additional assurance that the product is of a higher quality, natural, and being manufactured with the highest level of sanitary conditions.
