Scohen,

Or maybe because it tastes better? You seem to have alot of anger issues to work out.

11--hjs, not all places. Try Kosher Marketplace on Bway and 90th. You'll be glad you did!

10 david do they hide it??

6--hjs, you may have to specifically ask for it. The bottler puts a yellow cap on it.

5--Alie, I don't know about the animal's treatment during its life, but kosher butchering of beef is grotesque. The throat is slit and the animal actually chokes on its blood.

Thanks Sat!

I'm not Jewish - but a friend has forwarded me the cutest youtube clinb with a young girl relevant to kosher food on Passover from the British TV show Are you Smarter than a 10 year old

I may be mistaken, but what I have read seem to say that kosher (and halal) meats are from animals slaughtered in a more humane way. I feel less guilty about eating kosher (and halal) meats.

i'm going to look for the coke just out of curiosity. thanks david

I thought that Kosher also meant that the animals are treated humanely. Is that also true?

Hallah which is the equivalent of Kosher, but in the Muslim faith, which is sold more prominently in my neighborhood.

I'm reluctant to share this, because I'm afraid the supply will be gone.

Kosher for Passover Coca-Cola is made with real sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup. It is so much better than "regualar" Coke! It also lets me wax nostalgic about the soft drink of my childhood--which my mother only let me have on occasion, so it was a real treat.

I look forward to this time of year to stock up on kfp Coke, which contains sucrose instead of high-fructose corn syrup.

This trend of the people who do not need to or follow the Jewish dietary laws is similar to people who choose to have a gluten-free diet even though they do not have celiac disease -- just because it's the current trend; these trends caters to the narcissists who borrow their identity from the outside world--like body snatchers.

This only reflects the narcissist's internal sense of terrifying emptiness; it serves as a narcissistic parent figure, stuffing these folks full of false self-hood, like their own parents did throughout their lives. These folks were not allowed to develop true selves--they were forced to adopt their parents' wished-for styles, tastes, and personalities. This creates a yawning, painful gap between true self and impossible ideal.

These folks who finds the kosher and gluten-free food appealing (just because they see it advertised in the store not even knowing what kosher or a gluten-free means) embody the narcissistic rage that lies deep within these yunnies (young urban narcissists) and yuppies, a rage born from that agonizing gap between true and false self--it's a matricidal/patricidal rage that is barely below the surface in a culture that destroys everything that went before it, replacing it with its own fake-self images.
