Taboo food and drink - Blood. Drinking blood is a strong social taboo in most countries, often with a vague emotive association with vampirism (the consumption of human blood). Although blood sausage, or blood made to cake form, is quite popular in many parts of the world, it is considered repulsive in most of the United States. People in China and Vietnam also eat coagulated pig's or duck's blood with noodles, alone, or with something else. Followers of Judaism, Islam, and Jehovah's Witnesses are forbidd ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia - Clean animals

The clean animals are listed in the book of Leviticus in the Torah. Many animals in the passage that are clean have the characteristic of having divided hoofs and also chew their cud for it to be regurgitated. In the case in fish, scales and fins are present. If they do not have either one of them, they can be considered as an unclean animal. The division is largely used as the basis for identifying taboo meat proscribed by religious dietary laws, which in Judaism are known as kashrut and in Islam as halaal. Clean animal ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia - Kashrut

Kashrut (Hebrew: כַּשְׁרוּת kašrûṯ) or "keeping kosher" (Hebrew: כָּשֵׁר kāšēr) is the name of the Jewish dietary laws. Food in accord with halakha (Jewish law) is termed kosher in English, from the Hebrew term kasher, meaning "fit" (in this context, fit for Jewish consumption). Food not in accord with Jewish law is termed treifah or treif (טְרֵפָה ṭərēp̄āh) ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia - Blood

Blood is a circulating tissue composed of fluid plasma and cells (red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets). Medical terms related to blood often begin in hemo- or hemato- (BE: haemo- and haemato-) from the Greek word "haima" for "blood". The main function of blood is to supply nutrients (oxygen, glucose) and constitutional elements to tissues and to remove waste products (such as carbon dioxide and lactic acid). Blood also enables cells (leukocytes, abnormal tumor cells) and different su ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia - Taboo

A taboo is a strong social prohibition (or ban) relating to any area of human activity or social custom declared as sacred and forbidden; breaking of the taboo is usually considered objectionable or abhorrent by society. The term was borrowed from the Tongan language and appears in many Polynesian cultures. In those cultures, a tabu (or tapu or kapu) often has specific religious associations. Its first use in ...

Taboo food and drink - Rabbit. Leporids such as European rabbits and hares make friendly pets for fanciers or those allergic to cats and dogs. They are also a food meat in Europe, South America, North America, some parts of the Middle East, and China, among other places. The consumption of rabbit meat, however, historically pre-dates their use as pets, and is therefore not considered taboo by most people. Michael Moore's film Roger and Me famously features a poor Flint, Michi ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia II - Mashgiach - Responsibilities and levels of agencies

A mashgiach is required whenever meat or fish is being prepared or cooked. He or she checks all fresh eggs for blood spots before they are cooked or mixed into batters and dishes. He or she must soak and check all vegetables thoroughly using a prescribed method for hidden bugs (a food forbidden by Jewish law -- Halakha) before they can be used. He or she soaks the vegetables in salt water for a minimum of 18 minutes to loosen any bugs and checks the vegetables leaf by leaf. Usually, flying insects are found on leafy greens. For vegetables su ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia II - Hechsher - Rabbinic organizations and authorities and their hechsherim

The best known hechsher symbol in the world is the "OU" symbol of the Orthodox Union based in New York City in the United States. They employ hundreds of rabbis as mashgichim ("supervisors"). There are many other hechsher logos, for example the Cape Town Beth Din logo used in South Africa. Under the logo is written Parev (the neutral food class), Fleishik (Yiddish for meat) or Milchik (milk). Food may also be marked Kosher for Passover. ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia II - Kosher foods - Meat

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia II - Meat - Taboo meat

Main article: Taboo food and drink Some types of meat (such as pork or beef) are taboo for certain religions while others are taboo due to their association as pets in those countries, with the notable exception of rabbits in the West. Judaism labels the meat of some animals, if slaughtered properly, as kosher, or "fit", and the rest are considered not kosher, or "unfit" (also called treif, literally, "torn"). In Islam, permitted meats are termed halal. Until the mid-1960s, the Catholic Church forbade the eating o ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia II - Clean animals - Science Studies on unclean/clean animals

In 1953 Dr. David I. Macht of Johns Hopkins, conducted toxicity tests on many different kinds of animals and fish, and concluded that the toxicity of Levitically "unclean" animals was higher than that of the "clean" animals, and that the correlation with the description in Leviticus was 100%. [1] Dr. Macht used a toxicology test cited in the peer reviewed literature that Dr. Macht reported was particularly good for zoological toxins which of course is relevant for testing kosher and non kosher meat/fish/poultry. In addition, Dr. Macht had re ...

Hechsher - Passover P. The observance of Passover (Hebrew: Pesach) entails additional rules of kashrut. Near the holiday, foods that are kosher for Passover (Hebrew: kosher l'Pesach) may carry a "P" near the hechsher, standing for "Passover" or "Pesach". Hechsher - Dairy D. Observant Jews do not eat dairy products with meat. To ease identification of dairy products (like chocolate, which may or may not contain milk), a "D" or the word "Dairy" accompanies the hechs ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia II - Kosher foods - No mixing of meat and dairy

Milk products and meat products may not be eaten together in the same meal, much less cooked together. Jewish law thus mandates a set of 'fence' laws that prevent this from happening; cooking meat and milk together is prohibited, even if it is not eaten, eating milk and meat together is prohibited even if they are not cooked together, and no benefit can be attained from such activity; for instance, one cannot even serve meat and milk together to an animal. Note that in most current forms of Judaism (but not among all Karaites, Ethiopian Jews ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia II - Kosher foods - Dairy

Milk and milk-derived products derived from kosher animals are always kosher. All milk from cows, goats, and sheep is kosher. In the past, when milk from cows was more expensive, adulteration with camel milk or horse milk was a serious issue; today this is not considered a practical concern in the USA or in most western countries. As such, most Modern Orthodox rabbis and all Conservative rabbis hold that FDA supervision is sufficient for milk and dairy products to be considered automatically kosher. However, where it is available, many Ortho ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia II - Kosher foods - Wine and grape products

Traditionally, all wheat, all oil, and all products made from grape juice, including wine, are only considered kosher if produced by Jews. Those that are produced by non-Jews were considered treif. However, over time the prohibition against the consumption of wheat and oil products produced by non-Jews was dropped. Nonetheless, the prohibition against gentile made grape products continued. This is derived from the religious use of wine by non-Jews (as well as Jews). In the past, an entire vineyard, or an entire pressing ...

Taboo food and drink: Encyclopedia II - Kashrut - Reasons for the Biblical dietary laws

There continues to be a debate on the purposes and meaning of the laws regarding Kashrut. In Jewish philosophy it is recognized that many of the 613 mitzvot cannot be explained rationally. They are categorized as chukim, comprising such laws as the Red Heifer (Numbers 19). There are three basic points of view regarding these laws: One view holds that these laws do have a reason, but it is not understood because the ultimate explanation for mitzvot is beyond the human intellect. A second view holds t ...
