Kosher Slaughter Houses

I'm vegetarian, but nobody else in my familey is a .. It was a self-made choices. But I want my parents at least become kosher. From what I hear kosher means that animals are not as badly abused in the normal slaughter houses. But my father said that kosher means that meat is blessed by the rabbi .. ?!?! we're both wrong? is one of us right? please help .. thank youuuuuouououou

You're both right in part.
kosher meat must be prepared at a high level, including humane treatment and proper preparations.
A rabbi will inspect the plant, and after it passes muster, he blessed him.

kosher meat must also be at the front of the cow, and a cut that does not affect the central nervous system running in the back. The rest is sold as a lower cutoff and is not technically kosher.

Kosher means that it is normal for people of Jewish faith eat I think, because they can not eat certain meats.

I think the main difference is that how an animal is killed and prepared. in a kosher fashion, the animal's throat is cut (cutting the carotid arteries and jugular vein) and all the blood is drained from the animal.

kosher food are those that conform to Jewish dietary laws. Reasons for food being considered non-kosher include the presence of ingredients derived from animals or non-kosher kosher animals which have not been properly slaughtered, a mixture of meat and milk, wine or juice grapes (and their derivatives) produced by gentiles, the use of products from Israel that has not been tithed properly, or even the use of kitchen tools and machines that were used for non-kosher food.


If you read this Websight explains why and how the meat is kosher, and specifically your both wrong

To be kosher it must meet certain processing steps that conform to Jewish customs and religious guidelines. Even the utensils and dishes are subject to the guidelines.

Kosher refers to Jewish dietary laws. Food in accord with halakha (Jewish law) is called kosher in English, Hebrew term kosher, which means "good" (in this context, fit for consumption by Jews according to traditional Jewish law). Jews who keep kosher can not eat non-kosher food, but there are no restrictions on the use of non-food products not kosher, for example, injection of porcine insulin.

Kosher meat is humanily killed beef or lamb

kosher has nothing to do with how an animal is killed, it means they have a rabbi to bless the company as the meat they slaughter
