No. While kashrut (the laws that dictate whether a food is kosher) has certain rules for what and when certain milk products can be eaten, there is no law that restricts their consumption entirely.
In general, there are three rules that pertain to milk consumption: 1) kosher milk is derived entirely from kosher animals and not mixed with the milk from unclean animals; 2) kosher dairy foods (those containing milk) must contain only kosher milk; and 3) milk cannot be prepared or consumed at meat meals.
Is ice cream kosher for Passover?
Most ice cream is not kosher for passover, but you might be able to find ice cream
with a reliable Passover hashgacha (kosher certification for passover). But if it only
has a regular year-round kosher symbol, that doesn't by itself mean that it is kosher
for passover.
(Note that while it might be possible to find ice cream that is kosher for Passover,
you cannot eat it as part of the Passover Seder meal, as ice cream is dairy and
the Seder meal contains meat. The Torah forbids Jews to mix the two.
Addendum (by another contributor):
My mother used to make ice cream during Passover.
Why does Jewish people eat fresh food at passover?
While today, many Jews don't eat lamb on Passover, the idea came from the original Passover event in Egypt. The Jews were told to slaughter a lamb and leave the blood on the door post as a sign to the Angel of Death not to kill their firstborns (as the plague would hit the Egyptians).
Roasted lamb also has significance because it is one of the sacrifices that was used in the Temple, before it was destroyed. The sacrifice was delivered on Passover, as well as other holidays.
Lamb was an offering of thanks that was eaten by the family that made the offering during Passover. Many Ashkenazi Jews won't eat lamb because we don't have the Temple at this time. Most Sephardim don't have any restrictions on eating lamb during Passover.
According to halacha (Jewish law), yes, some types of locusts are. Grasshoppers are, for instance.
It can be, because as a steer is a bovine with cloven hooves that chews the cud it is a kosher animal - but it will need to have been slaughtered in the kosher way (shechita) by a highly-trained Jewish butcher (a shochet) using a very sharp and unserrated blade with an edge free of nicks and blemishes (a hallaf or sakin), certain parts of the carcass removed (sciatic nerve, sinews, veins and certain fats called chelev in a process known as porging) and, once butchered, all traces of blood must be removed from the meat by soaking it up with koshering salt (the "kosher salt" seen in shops).
The above answer is 99% correct. What the writer may not have known is that a steer is a castrated male bovine. Castrated animals are not kosher. I would imagine that even a bull with ear notches would be non-kosher.
Yes. Any fish that has both fins and easily removed scales is considered kosher.
However, be careful that what you are being sold really is barramundi and not some cheaper fish that might not be kosher (though if you are ripped off chances are good that it's trevally, which is also kosher).
Which blue bell ice creams are kosher?
Any cheeses made from kosher ingredients by a manufacturer that is certified kosher is kosher. Kosher refers to any food prepared according to the laws of kashrut (Jewish dietary laws), it is not a style of food.
Fish have to have scales and fins. Squid is most definitely NOT kosher.
Are cheerios kosher for passover?
No. They are made from oats, which is one of the "five species" of grains that are traditionally banned for Jews during Passover (Exodus ch.12).
There are "Kosher for Passover" dry cereals similar to Cheerios that are made from matzoh meal, but I've tried them so you don't have to. Stick with scrambled eggs; they're better for you.
60+ years ago, a very young chemist named Isaac Asimov wrote a science fiction story about a powder that would dissolve 1.2 seconds BEFORE you added water; he called it "thiotimoline". Matzoh Cheerios are very much like that.
To be kosher, fish need scales and fins. The dictionary definition of cat fish is "Any of numerousscaleless, chiefly freshwater fishes of the order Siluriformes, characteristically having whiskerlike barbels extending from the upper jaw"

What is in the Jewish sabbath meal?
The sabbath is an everlasting covenant between the Jewish people and G-d. A part of its observance is to enjoy the day. Meals eaten at night, during the morning and late afternoon are all part of its observance and enjoyment.
What do Jews eat on Sabbath Day?
There are 3 meals on the Sabbath. One in the Evening (Friday night), and two during the day. The meals are festive meals starting with kiddush over wine in the first two meals. Bread should be eaten for each of the 3 meals. The bread on the Sabbath is called 'Challah'. Other than that, one may eat whatever he likes. Many eat meat, poultry or fish.
What happens at the sabbath meal?
Sabbath is a day of rest for people who follow Judaism. It occurs on the seventh day of the week and is considered a holy day of rest.
Answer:
The Jewish Sabbath is from Friday sundown until Saturday after twilight. Its origin is in the Torah (Genesis ch.2, Leviticus ch.23, Exodus ch.20 and many other passages).
The Sabbath is considered in Judaism to be a day blessed by God (Genesis ch.2), a day of rest (Exodus ch.20, ch.31), and a day of strengthening ties with the family, the community, and with God.
Here is further background information:
There are two main aspects to Shabbat observance: what we do and what we don't do.
What we don't do: we're not permitted to work on the Shabbat (Exodus ch.20). This includes 39 categories of productive interaction with the world, such as planting, writing, kindling fire, etc. (Talmud, Shabbat 73b).
What we do: candles are lit, customarily by the lady of the household, around 20 minutes before sunset on Friday afternoon. We then attend synagogue for the Friday afternoon prayer (mincha), the kabbalat Shabbat (ushering in of the Shabbat), and the Shabbat evening prayer (maariv).
On Shabbat morning, we again attend synagogue. The services are longer than on weekdays and include prayers as well as reading the weekly Torah-portion. There's often a kiddush (refreshments) afterwards, and congregants have a chance to schmooze (to talk). Towards the late afternoon, there's another (short) service (Shabbat mincha).
After Friday night services and on Shabbat morning after services, we come home, often with guests, make kiddush (blessing over wine), and have a leisurely multi-course Shabbat meal including singing and words of Torah. Customarily, that week's Torah-reading (parsha) will be a topic of conversation; and the children of the family will have a chance to speak of what they've learned in school.
After that, Shabbat is a quiet time: no phones, radio or TV (etc.), just schmoozing, taking walks, visiting friends, reading, learning Torah, playing board games, etc. Husband and wife, in particular, finally have a chance to be together after a hectic week.
Of course they did! They used to eat tons of meat and stuff that would have killed them raw.
Does every religious Jewish person eat kosher food?
People of the Jewish religion eat 'kosher" (meaning fit) food because that is the way they were commanded by God in the Tanach.
How did the Romans cook and prepare their food?
The Roman staple was bread, which could be baked in the field by a Roman Legionary using a small, portable clay oven, or in a mechanized mass production bakery in a city such as Rome.
Romans also cooked over coals, often using olive oil which was another staple of Roman life.
Don't forget the spit. Roasting various types of meat was done on a rotating spit. Also there were household ovens where the stuffed pastries were baked.
Many people incorrectly believe that "kosher" is a style of cooking but this couldn't be further from the truth. Kosher simply refers to foods that are prepared following the laws of kashrut (Jewish dietary laws) which does not dictate the style of foods eaten by Jews outside of prohibiting certain types of foods. As such, religiously observant Jews will only those those foods that are Kosher.
The basic rules of kashrut are:
1. Land animals must have split hooves and chew their cud.
2. Fish must have scales and fins.
3. Birds must not be amongst the list of forbidden birds in the Torah and must not be hunters.
4. Meat and dairy cannot be combined in any way.
5. Consumption of blood is forbidden.
Now, to answer the question as to what foods Jews eat, this varies greatly depending on what part of the world said Jews are from. The types of foods eaten by Jews from Eastern Europe will be different from those in Southern Europe, from those in India, Northern Africa, Yemen, Iraq, Israel, etc.
Foods will even vary by region within the same part of the world, a dish that is eaten by Polish Jews may also be eaten by Russian Jews, however, the ingredients or how that specific dish is made will be different.
American Jews usually eat plenty of matzoh ball soup and latkes(potato pancakes) lox and bagels.
Israeli Jews eat middle eastern foods... humus... dolmades... different types of fish... cabbage rolls...
this is coming from an American Jew with lots of israeli friends. I also eat a kosher beef hot dog soup often.
Is there a special meal after a bar mitzvah?
A bar mitzvah meal is not a religiously prescribed meal such as the seder which is part of Passover, however, a bar mitzvah generally does include a party, so people do indulge in a feast of some kind.
What is an example of a kosher menu?
since people who keep kosher do not mix milk and meat products the answer will depend on the type of meal you would like to serve.
a festive meal can be the following
Kosher simply refers to food that is prepared following the rules of kashrut. A menu depends on region and cultural background of the people cooking.
