Just curious about Kosher certification because it keeps getting brought up as a comparison, do they also certify unecessary items, things that are Kosher by default?
I asked Mr Google about Kosher certification and the answer came back which indicated that *Kosher certified foods help Jewish people conform to a particular diet. **Does it make them (Jewish people) more attractive? No!
*One source on google says that and you believe it enough to repost it here?
**The last sentence is meant to be funny or what? Because it certainly isn't funny.
The term Kosher means proper or fit. It has nothing to do with the Rabbi's blessing.
Kosher laws are based on principles set forth in the Bible (Lev. 11:3-12, Lev. 17:10,Deut. 12:21) with elucidation in Rabbinic literature such as the Talmud and the Code of Jewish Law.
Kosher Dietary Rules and Regulations.
1. Introduction
As it says in the German, Man ist was man isst! Man is what man eats. The word kosher is familiar and, at the same time, foreign. One may think of strict rules and religious regulations.
In Hebrew, “Kashrus,” from the root kosher (or “kasher”), means suitable and/or “pure”, thus ensuring fitness for consumption.
The laws of “Kashrus” include a comprehensive legislation concerning permitted and forbidden foods. There are several aspects to these dietary rules. We will consider each aspect in turn.

The last bit about making Jewish people attractive was for those who claim ownership of a sense of humour. Apparently that does not include you. Included or excluded....we all know that the sun will come up tomorrow so no big deal.
