To scrupulously follow the rules set forth in the Torah for what is and is not acceptable for Jews to eat. Many of the basic rules are in Leviticus 11, but other rules are scattered elsewhere. One commandment, repeated 3 times, forbids "seething a kid in its mother's milk," see Exodus 23:19, Exodus 34:26 and Deuteronomy 14:21. Had it been mentioned just once, it might be taken as a narrow prohibition, but the repetition of this commandment leads the Jewish community to interpret this quite broadly, forbidding any meal from containing any milk or dairy products if it contains any meat or meat products, interpreting meat broadly to include birds as well as mammals.

What was the reason for the development of the kosher diet?
Today, a lot of people believe that many aspects of kashrut were based on health, however, Jewish records don't support this claim. The types of food that can and can't be eaten according to kashrut doesn't support this claim either. In truth, the laws of kashrut delineate our relationship with food. Kashrut doesn't only specify what we eat, but also how we eat, and when we eat or don't eat. Please see the related link for a detailed explanation.
Are kashrut rules an old tradition?
