Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(Why can't Jewish people eat pork?),it will help you,my kids.
Answer:
Because back in the old times, the bible forbade them from eating unclean or dirty animals. Given the unsanitary conditions back then it really safeguarded them from disease.
no
because pork eats everything pretty much and they are dirty to their kind i just learned
back in the day they did not know how to cook it so that it would be safe to eat we do not have that problem today, but many still adhere to the old ways it is just their religious beliefs
It has to do with improper food preparation in ancient times, and the spread of triginosis.
Because in the scriptures of the bible, God deemed pigs and swine to be unclean food, and not to be eaten ( Deuteronomy Chapter 14, Verse 8). But not only Pork is considered unclean...in fact, the entire of Deuteronomy Chapter 14 really lays out very specific laws on what is or is not "clean" (Kosher) food that people can eat. Shellfish and certain type of bird are also out.
Pigs are considered an unclean animal by Jewish law. There are some Jews who do not keep Kosher, and therefore will eat pork products, but those who want to follow the traditions will not.
The basis for the Kosher diet is set down in the old testament, and was a set as a way for the Israelites to set themselves apart from the rest of the population. For more information, I would contact your local temple. The rabbi there would be happy to explain anything about kosher law that you would like to know.
It's only a beleif, it's part of their religion, as people from India can't eat a cow, but all people should eat all kind of food.
They only eat Kosher bacon.
well pork is supposed to be dirty to them so its really for sanitary reasons
It's a law from the Bible.
Leviticus Chapter 11:
1. And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, to say to them:
2. Speak to the children of Israel, saying: These are the creatures that you may eat among all the animals on earth:
3. Any animal that has a cloven hoof that is completely split into double hooves, and which brings up its cud that one you may eat. 4. But these you shall not eat among those that bring up the cud and those that have a cloven hoof: the camel, because it brings up its cud, but does not have a [completely] cloven hoof; it is unclean for you. 5. And the hyrax, because it brings up its cud, but will not have a [completely] cloven hoof; it is unclean for you; 6. And the hare, because it brings up its cud, but does not have a [completely] cloven hoof; it is unclean for you; 7. And the pig, because it has a cloven hoof that is completely split, but will not regurgitate its cud; it is unclean for you.
8. You shall not eat of their flesh, and you shall not touch their carcasses; they are unclean for you.
The list of animals called unclean is made up of scavengers - the kind of critters that eat anything. God limited people to the kinds of animals that didn't eat just anything. They say you are what you eat - seems that applies to animals as well, and God appears to have this wish for his people to be healthy.
The rule is that land animals have to have hooves and chew cud and sea animals have to have scales and fins. That means: no pork, no lobster. Also, no mixing of milk and meat (in the same meal: sometimes even on the same set of dishes, by tradition).
There are tons of biological reasons that this was a necessity back then -- including disease, and a physical inclination not to process lactose and poorly cooked meat very well -- but I have given you the Kosher law of the land: reason or not, that's what it is.
My husband eats Kosher, and man, do I miss cheeseburgers. Pigs carry parasitic worms, so I've never liked them much anyway.
I thought Muslims can't eat pork. Jews can eat pork if its cut properly.
Jewish ppl can eat whatever they want, it's only the ones who are religious AND want to follow the Kashrut who won't eat pork. A lot of ppl are only aware of certain things like pork and shellfish which aren't Kosher, but they fail to realise that *everything* has to be deemed Kosher. That includes ketchup, flour, bagels, spaghetti, crackers, chips, spices, etc.! All food products must be prepared in accordance to the Kashrut (Jewish dietary laws) and certified by a Rabbi or Rabbinic organisation. Pigs are just one of many things considered Treyf (not Kosher) which all have their origins in Biblical times. A lot of Jewish ppl just won't eat pork or shellfish b/c they are so obviously Treyf (as opposed to a garden salad).
