==Dietary laws==
==Dietary laws==
Observant Jews follow a strict and complex set of rules governing what they may eat and drink. Permissible foods are called ''[[kosher]].'' Per Biblical commandments, only animals that chew their cud and have cloven hooves may be eaten and they must be properly slaughtered. Fish must have fins and scales. Dairy products cannot be mixed with meat from animals or birds. Vegetables, must be checked for insects, as insects are considered "treyf", meaning not kosher. Additional rules apply during [[Pesach]], which is the most commonly practiced holiday amongst Jews.
