When kosher food is opened is it still kosher?
When a container of food that has been certified kosher is opened, the opportunity for deliberate or accidental contamination occurs. Thus, an observant Jew might be hesitant to assume the food in such a container was still kosher unless he, or someone he trusted, had opened it and watched over it. More important, if the food were to be opened and heated up in an oven with non-kosher food, or which had been used for non-kosher food, it would no longer be kosher. This is why (for example) kosher airline meals must be served unopened.

What foods are from the Jewish culture?
There is no such thing as Jewish style food. Jews live all over the world, therefore, depending on where an individual Jew lives, they're going to eat different foods. Many people associate deli with "kosher style", this is an incorrect association as kosher specifically refers to rules of food preparation and consumption and has no bearing on the type of food eaten. For example, kosher can be applied to North American burgers and hot dogs, Indian food, Italian, TexMex, Chinese, etc.

What is the opposite to kosher?
In regard to food:Treif (טרף), which is spelled in various ways and translates into English as "torn."

What formula do you use in the food business to figure how much over and above food cost to make profit?
Theoretically you always want to keep your real food cost below 33% of your food sales. To figure out your food cost percentage you simply divide your cost of food by your food sales, then move the decimal. I aim for a 28% food cost in the hopes that it falls at or below 33% in reality. If your real food cost is below 33% and your other areas of cost are under control, you should be turning a profit.
How do you know if the food product is kosher?
If you ever see a "U" with a circle around it, that indicates the food is kosher. Next time you are in the supermarket look at a box or bag of food and if you see a "U" with a circle around it means the food is kosher.

Are foods not kosher if they are made in a non-kosher pot?
If the pot was used for non-kosher in the last 24 hour then it's forbidden to eat, but otherwise it's ok if there's no other choice. Also, a non-kosher pot can be koshered by immersing it in boiling water before cooking food in it. If it's too big to immerse, fill it with water, bring it to a boil, and carefully cause the boiling water to go over its rim. Ideally, you should buy a separate pot for your own use.
