RE: Kosher
Kosher doesn't guarantee anything about the ingredients in a product. In our modern age it mostly implies that the food product has been blessed by a Rabbi. It's original meaning has to do with the way animals were slaughtered for human consumption (in the most humane way to alleviate suffering). According to my Orthodox Jewish friends, some Jews still insist upon buying their meat products from certain sources only. You really should google "Kosher" if you want to know what it is. It gets complicated.
