Best Answer

G-d did not create kosher foods, He created the animals, plants and other forms of life that make up the entirety of life on planet Earth. Later on, He made a covenant or agreement with the Ancient Hebrews in which the people that became Jews agreed to live their lives according to 613 strict guidelines and rules, known as the Taryag Mitzvot - some of which stated that Jews must not eat certain animals or mix meat with dairy. Why this should be is a matter of some debate - some people claim that those foods declared non-kosher (treif) would be liable to decay quickly in a warm environment such as that then inhabited by the Hebrews, whereas others believe that kashrut (the laws governing what is kosher and what is not) exist simply as a test of a Jew's dedication to the covenant. Others just accept them as chukim - laws for which no reason is given - and don't question what they see as G-d's will.
