1466.0. "Kosher food in Greece?" by SIOG::BAUM () Wed Jul 05 1995 14:27

    
    Hi,
    
    Does anyone know if the bread in Greece is Kosher, and if so which,
    prepackaged one. I know the 'U' means it is ok to eat.
    
    I also know that the bread in Europe and America etc is not kosher,
    because it is coated with an animal fat, but is this the case in the
    med countries.
    
    I am actually going to Crete, so if you have any info regarding kosher
    food it would be helpfull. I know I will have to bring food with me,
    but as I have said any info would be helpfull.
    
    If you don't know, maybe you can suggest somewhere that I could try and
    ring, to find out.
    
    If you are sure the bread is kosher, I would like to confirm that info
    some way, just to be sure.
    
    Thanks for the help, Heath.

Subject: Kosher Restaurant Database Update

Okay, here is the latest list of additions to the Kosher Restaurant
Database. Several people have asked me where the full database can be
accessed from. The full database is found on the mail-jewish Home page,
for all of you who have access to the Web. That is rapidly becoming a
large number of you. If you have access to either a graphical based web
browser, such as Mosaic or Netscape, or a text based browser such as
lynx, open the following URL (Uniform Resource Locator):
http://shamash.nysernet.org/mail-jewish and then choose the Kosher
Restaurant Database from that page.

We are now sitting at 412 restaurants in the database, and of those 285
have been updated or entered in 1995. The oldest date entries are from
1989, and there are 13 of those, listed below. Let's see if we can
either update these or identify them as closed by the next update. Then
we can work on the 15 from 1990.

1466.2I'll be back.\SIOG::BAUMWed Jul 19 1995 20:0714
    
    Hi,
    
    Thanks for the reply, it is helpful.
    
    However I was really wondering if anybody knows what they generaly cook
    there food in. Was it all cooked in vegatable oil, or was their a
    possibility that it was cooked in animal fat. Any advice?.... I know
    I'm probably going to have to bring most of my food over with me, but
    any info is helpful.
    
    Thanks.
    
    Heath.

    Not evrywhere. In Germany, by example, bread isn't coated with animal
    fat. I sounds like a bad joke, but German bread is kosher, because 
    Hitler was a vegetarian.

Really?  Where do people get such silly things?

And I suppose meat and dairy don't go together because Moses couldn't
buy any Lactaid in the desert.
