a lot of people who do not understand the Jewish religion think that being Kosher is elitist when thousands of years ago the Jews started Kosher laws. Today we are in fact creating a new standard of health and the same bigots who resented the fact that the Jews were preparing they're food in a way that was healthy for the knowledge of the time and cruelty free are making snide remarks about organic foods. Organic food is not a fad... any more then Kosher food is. There might be people who abuse these standards... but we should be thankful that these classifications are out there to protect the consumer. Like all standards we have to be careful with them and understand they are not absolute and the governing body an sometimes betray the people.
