Non-kosher hotdog sparks outrage in NY

[EasyRider 3]

My opinion on sausages, including hot-dogs (shared by my wife and MIL): no thanx, they're about as compatible with us as avocados

But avocados are delicious, especially sliced thin on a salad.

I don't mind. As long as I tell myself it's not human, I'll eat it.

I will tell you that I've worked A LOT of "all kosher" weddings and events. Many times it's very hard to get things kosher or the client wants them kosher but isn't willing to pay the extra cost. Sometimes they get non-kosher thinking it's kosher. I'm sure it's ok if they don't know. They're innocent. We're the ones going to hell

eta: it's very easy to get things in past the rabbi if you have a good imagination and a big trash can

That's horrible! I realize they're innocent but still, I'd be livid if I ever found out there was pork in my dinner when I asked specifically for no pork. If it were me I'd just refuse to cater to someone who wanted kosher but didn't want to pay for it.

ok, i understand your concerns about street meat, but wait what is wrong with avocados?

They just don't taste nice to the average desi palate.

I love to mix avacados with sweet condensed milk. It adds more flavor to it!

I worked at a Hyatt hotel that had a seperate kosher kitchen for those events, pots pans utensils and all the service ware ware kept seperate.

Ahh.... i see... okay, i can understand that.

I don't like the texture of avocado. Its also one of the most calorific things you can eat.

How can anyone be sure that their meat is Kosher? We live in a society where the point of production is so far removed from the point of consumption that we are just reliant on what people say which is less than satisfactory on many occasions. Of course, most people are honest most of the time, but you just don't know if you are dealing with the rogue element.

i hear you, but isn't it really, really, REALLY bad if you sell something labeled as Kosher and it's not?

Heads will roll! Oh wait...... that's that 'other' religion.

Its false advertising certainly - and creates false expectations on the part of the consumer.

Then again food labels are notoriously deceptive - that whole "Zero g of trans-fat" is a clunker.
