The literal meaning of the word "kosher" is "fit." Although the word kosher is most commonly associated with food, it may refer to other things too.

When discussing kosher food, it refers to any food item that is prepared then consumed following the laws of kashrut (Jewish dietary laws).

Answer:

In order to be kosher, food has to be prepared according to the kosher-laws (see Deuteronomy ch.14).
