Kosher Food, is food that complies Biblical standards as given in the Torah.

Land Animals must chew it's cud and have a split hoof.

Sea Animals mus have both scales and fins

Fowl must not be "Birds of Prey"

beyond that there is strict slaughtering procedures which require a very sharp blade that cuts both carotid artery at the same time instantly draining blood from the brain and denying fresh blood.

All blood must be drained from the animal.

A Rabbi must oversee the slaughter and butchering process of the animals while a Mashgiach supervises each step.

Stricter inspections are required for Glatt Kosher, which involves inspection of the lungs

Dairy for Cholov Yisrael must be inspected by a rabbi and supervised by a mashgiach

Meat (fleishig) must remain seperate from Dairy )Milchig) in process, cooking and service. separate pots, plates and utensils must be used for meat and dairy.

restaurants that are certified as kosher mush be inspected regularly by a rabbi. If the restaurant is owned by a Gentile a Mashgiach must be present during all production of food.

What do you mean you talk about kosher foods?

The word kosher means 'fit'. When describing food as kosher, this means that the food in question is considered fit for eating by religiously observant Jews. Many people believe that food is made kosher when a Rabbi blesses it, however, this is false. In order for food to be kosher, the food has to be prepared following the laws of kashrut. Food that is not prepared following these laws cannot be made kosher after the fact.
