#3 I could never be Jewish... Lamb - allergic.
Goat - absolutely no interest...

Pork - Yes.... the staff of life.

Lobster crawfish etc... good eats..

Shark, Marlin - mmmm

Giraffe - too cute I will take a pass unless really hungry.

Rabbit - one of the kids loves it.

I have to admit that its not as bad as trying to figure out a meal for one of the kids hindu girlfriends... at least she doesn't have a strict guru... (things like yeast is an animal so nothing with yeast - would never want to deal with that...)

#6 That's ok, 3dc. You can be a Reform Jew -- they allow pretty much anything except atheism and polygamy. ;-) The trailing daughters' adopted grandmother goes straight from Yom Kippur services to lunch at her favourite restaurant, her version of a nothing-past-the-lips fast.

Mr. Wife says he had no idea giraffes were Jewish, the silly man.

#7 Too bad the giraffe is getting attention. a more serious problem:

- whether kosher meat from the Agriproccessing plant in Postville, IA (at which a number of employees have been charged with various crimes, including conspiracy to use illegal immigrants, possession of meth, and sexual abuse) should be boycotted.
