By the time it reaches the supermarket shelf, (kosher meat is also found in local

supermarkets), there's not a lot of difference between kosher meat and any other,

except that there are several cuts and parts of the animal that aren't available kosher,

and kosher meat on the shelf has been drained of all blood.

The differences occur before the meat reaches the market. They include the selection

and inspection of the animal, and the slaughtering and butchering methods.

Kosher meat might be available at the local super market but usually only in areas with a relatively higher Jewish population.

For meat to be kosher, it has to come from a kosher animal (including cows and chickens) and it has to be killed a specific way under the supervision of experts (who might be rabbis, but not necessarily) who have been certified as such by various kosher organizations.

Kosher meat is more expensive than regular meat since it includes extra verification, is more labor intensive and some animals on the assembly line might not be suitable to be kosher (was sick, had worms, and other reasons).
