Keeping kosher means following dietary laws handed down throughthe centuries among the Jewish faithful. Kosher has its roots inthe Old Testament. Kosher laws are generally more strict thanU.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) standards.
Religious inspectors also rule out sick or injured animals thatwould be normally be accepted in non-Kosher markets.
In our modern world where most animals are often treatedroughly, keeping Kosher means eating a much healthier grade ofmeat.
