Abstract
Jewish dietary regulations (kashrut) are followed as a religious practice derived from the Torah, teaching what food one can eat and how to prepare it. The customs require the separation of meat and dairy, the consumption only of specific beasts, and the adherence of ritual slaughter (shechita). Being kosher is a way in which Jewish individuals can be spiritually trained and obey God's commandments while generating a sense of sanctity within daily life.
Aside from religious significance, keeping kosher also emphasizes ethical eating and cultural heritage. The practice promotes humane treatment of animals, cleanliness in food handling, and enriching Jewish traditions from generation to generations. By following these dietary laws, individuals become more conscious of what they eat and feel a strong sense of belonging to their religion and community.
