Observant Jews do not eat anything during Yom Kippur. A strict fast is maintained between 30 minutes prior to sundown (Yom Kippur, like all Jewish festivals, begins at sundown as does each new day) to after nightfall the following day. More Jews observe the Yom Kippur fast that almost any other Jewish commandment, but under Jewish law it can be waived for children and anyone who might suffer medical complications as a result.

Jewish people are not supposed to eat during Yom Kippur, also known as "The Day of Attonement." Although, there are a few exceptions to this rule such as sick people who must eat to sustain their health.

I am not sure what happens I think we should come one with God. Talk with God explain what you are feeling. God loves you unconditionally. There is no reason for punishment but to be explained right from wrong.

If you're talking about the dinner that immediately preceeds the begininng of the holiday, i.e. the evening before, you're feeding people who are about to fast from any food or drink for about 25 hours. The menu should consist of proteins, complex carbohydrates, and fluids. Personally, we have steak, whole new potatoes, maybe corn, whole wheat bread, and lots of water. Stay away from salt and spices ... they make you thirsty later.

If you're talking about the "break - fast" meal at the end of the holiday, that's usually light. Start with fruit juice or water, then maybe pasta salad, tuna or egg salad etc.
Nobody is as hungry as they think they are, and it won't take much to satisfy.

Modest, conservatively styled clothes, such as a suit for the men and a dress for the women.
