To say something's traif and ruefully admit that you like it despite the fact that a good Jew shouldn't eat it, or to say that traif is not that important, and that you can eat traif and be a good Jew?Eliezer Eisenberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16036989084122930226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20173285.post-61007437454170231742010-04-21T20:06:51.187-04:002010-04-21T20:06:51.187-04:00This was posted on the "Traif" blog; I g...This was posted on the "Traif" blog; I give them credit in the first paragraph for calling the proprieter on his insensitivity, even though most don't keep kosher themselves. As far as an offense to Reform Jewry(2nd paragraph), that's a different story...<br /><br />===============<br /><br />Dear Traif,<br />We are a group of 8th and 9th graders who take a food in Judaism class at our temple. Our teacher found a post about your restaurant and we decided to check it out. We’ve read many positive comments about your new restaurant however, we have a different opinion. Your title of your restaurant seems inappropriate and offensive to the Jewish community. Although many of us in the class do not keep Kosher, we still felt that your title is mocking what most Jew’s believe in; keeping Kosher is a sacred rule for many Jewish people. <br /><br />As you said before, ” I am Jewish, although obviously not great at it” (Mmmm, Bacon). You made it seem that if you do not keep Kosher, you can not be a good Jew. Reform Jew’s are not required to keep Kosher, which is another reason why our class took offense to your post. <br /><br />To conclude, you might want to re-think your public view and opinions of keeping Kosher."Shades of Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03029177164921795725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20173285.post-4279304237113472932010-04-21T17:30:16.482-04:002010-04-21T17:30:16.482-04:00Just a sad loser who can't move on from what h...Just a sad loser who can't move on from what he's left behind.
