So, kosher is not a guarantee of vegetarian. I cant recall ever buying a kosher product, unless it was indeed vegetarian. Om Peace!

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 Pork can never be kosher. A rabbi would never bless. Neither would a rabbi ever bless shellfish. - DJ-----------------------Always remember: Today's mighty oak is simplyyesterday's nut that held its ground...

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 No blessing would ever result in pork being Kosher. Pork NEVER EVER becomes Kosher! My goodness...

Not being Jewish it didnt occur to me. Either way, my point was that kosher is *not* a standard for being vegetarian. Om Peace!
