In common parlance[edit]

Aside from 'dont tase me bro, its not kosher' being such an ugly juxtaposition that it is an affront to my eyes and no doubt to my ears if anyone actually deigned to speak it out loud, when the fuck has anyone used 'kosher' to mean cool, rather than genuine? I guessing no one without some odd looks. AMassiveGay (talk) 11:06, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

Multiple inaccuracies near the beginning[edit]

Prohibitions on land animals that do not have split hooves and chew cud, and on sea creatures not having both fins and scales, are in fact in Torah and are definitely not 'post-Torah'. (Some interpretations of these laws, e.g. deciding whether a fish that loses its scales were kosher, are 'post-Torah', for which the preferred term in Jewish studies would be 'Rabbinnic'.)

Kosher is not a noun[edit]

Or if it is used as such (which is very rarely) the word "Kashrut" fits better.

Our articles are usually about nouns, not adjectives. Should we move it to Kashrut? another Jewish conspiracy by (((Laurogeita Hamabost))) (talk) 16:29, 5 September 2016 (UTC)

Confusing Israel with Judaism is antisemitic for sure[edit]

Is it really necessary to say "muh Palestine autonomy"? Just call it antisemitism. Vee (talk) 04:41, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
