there is actually a set of rules that Jews follow, called the kosher laws. these laws consist of these rules: you may not eat meat and dairy in the same meal. you may not eat meat from a pig. you may not eat smooth-skinned fish or shellfish (shrimp, scallops, muscles, crab, lobster, eel, octopus, shark, etc.)you may only scaled fish.

there are a few other rules, but those are the main ones.

What is Jewish's diet?

The diet of religiously observant Jews is made up of Kosher food. However, kosher food is not a style of cooking, it simply refers to food that is prepared and consumed according to 'kashrut'. "Kashrut", which is what Jewish dietary law is called, comes from the Hebrew root Kaf-Shin-Reish, meaning fit, proper or correct. It is possible to list quotes about food preparation and consumption from the Torah, however, that wouldn't actually answer the question as to what the Jewish diet is. In truth, the diet of Jews is largely influenced by the country they are from. For example, the diet of Polish Jews was traditionally hugely different from the diet of Jews from countries such as Morocco, Italy, Yemen, India, etc. As such, it would be impossible to outline the diet of different Jewish communities in this forum. A quick comparison would be that Eastern European Jewish diets would favour beef, chicken, and various types of dumplings while a Moroccan Jewish diet would favour lamb, chicken, fish, and a more complex use of spices, fruits, and vegetables.
