Food!!

Hey guys,

We heard that some of you eat only kosher food, but when we asked what is it all about we heard a few general rules (no cheeseburgers or pork) and then that there are different versions, so you actually never no...

So I tried Wikipedia - not much of a help, but you can find funny stuff there like: "Giraffes are technically kosher." or "Likewise, though swans are kosher in theory if kosher-slaughtered, there is no Jewish tradition of eating swans."- thank God!! Sorry, but we're not able to provide you with a giraffe steak either;) So if you eat kosher food, please write about yourself, so we can have a general idea and be better prepared:)

Anyway, I hope that you won't feel offended by the Wikipedia quotations. Getting kosher food is almost impossible in Poland, so I don't know much about it and while reading about it on the Net I was really wondering what is really important and what is not...

By the way, I wonder what funny things you can learn on Poland from Wikipedia?? Have you found something weird about country or our traditions? If yes, feel free to ask!!

Cheers,
Kaja

my eating habits are kosher and vegeterian. that means that i dont eat meat or fish as a vegeterian (which is good cause i dont eat non kosher meat anyway). kosher wise, since we are coming during passover we cant eat anything that has wheat in it like pasta, bread and so. hence, ill live on egges,vegtabels,cheese and stuff ill bring from israel. yummi :)
dont worry, we will manage.
thanks for your intrest
