Jewish people eat the following foods mentioned in The Bible:
1. Fowl/poultry: eat only those known by tradition not to be in the list of forbidden fowl in the Bible e.g. chicken, turkey, duck, goose.
2. Meat: only from animals that chew the cud and have a fully cloven hoof e.g. cow, goat, sheep; but not pig, rabbit, camel, horse etc.
3. Milk and eggs: only those from kosher animals/ fowl (as mentioned in 1 and 2).
4. Fish: only those with fins and scales (eg no shellfish)
5. Meat and milk: it is forbidden to eat meat and milk together, even two separate foods at the same meal.
6. Meat and poultry must be slaughtered according to Jewish law, by a trained religious Jew, and ritually cleansed of blood.
There are rabbinic laws governing foods such as milk, bread, wine, cheese and other cooked foods that they must be prepared/cooked or have their preparation/cooking supervised by a religious Jew.
Most prepared foods must carry certification that their production is supervised, so as to ensure that they comply with these rules.
All Jewish people cannot eat pork, bacon, ham, or anything of the sort. However, the more observant a person is, the more restrictions they have on his/her diet. For example, conservative and very orthodox Jews must eat only kosher food, whereas reform Jews are a little more lax. However, within each denomination, there are many levels. So there may be 2 reform Jews who observe and follow different traditions.
Religiously observant Jews will not eat any food that is not kosher. The core rules of kashrut (dietary laws) are:
* Land animals must have split hooves and chew their cud.
* Fish have to have scales and fins.
* Birds cannot be amongst those listed as forbidden in the Torah and cannot be hunters/scavengers
* Animals must be killed in a specific manner and must be free of all disease
* As much blood as possible must be removed from meat as consumption of blood is forbidden
* Dairy and meat cannot be combined in the same meal and there's a waiting period between eating one then the other.
* Orthodox Jews and some Conservative Jews will not eat certain fruits and vegetables because it's too difficult to guarantee that all bugs have been washed away (cauliflower, asparagus, and the like).
Additionally, food must be prepared and handled following kashrut. Any food that does not meet these requirements cannot be eaten by those who are religiously observant.
