Many Jews eat what is called Kosher food; it is much the same as what other people eat, however, they can only eat fish that have fins and scales and land animals that have split hooves and chew the cud (Deuteronomy ch.14). Fowl have other restrictions. Land animals have to be slaughtered in a certain way by a person trained specifically in the correct way; this person is called a 'shochet'.

There are a large number of Jews do not keep kosher, though. They eat the same food other people in their countries of residence do.
