Anchovies are definitely a clean fish. Funny enough, the only references in the Bible that use that word have to do with not eating an animal that was "torn" (treifah) in the field, by predators. (Genesis 31:39, Exodus 22:31, Leviticus 7:24, 17:15, 22:8) |

Fruitcake is highly sugary and contains those candied fruits. It's an acquired taste that I didn't acquire. My sister and I send the same one to each other every year. My late uncle was an engineer for the A&P and used to present us with one every year (Jane Parker). Of course we had to eat some to be polite. I can point to moments like this when my bad behavior starts.your pal, Fred |

Maybe that fits into the whole mixing dairy and meat thing? I know fish aren't really meat, but....No; that would mean lox and cream cheese would also be prohibited. Fish is its own category; it can be mixed with dairy but not with meat. |

There are other restrictions as well.Lev. 11:3 and Deut 14:6 permit the consumption of animals (not fish, that's another category) that have split hooves and chew their cud. Both elements must be present. These animals must still be properly prepared before they can be consumed. Lev. 11:4 explicitly prohibits the consumption of any animals that do not have split hooves and do not chew their cud. They are unkosher animals no matter how they are prepared. An animal that is torn by predators is not kosher because it is considered to be ne'veilah, a dead body, that was not properly prepared for consumption. That is a different category of kashrut. |

That has nothing to do with the meaning of the word "treif". That has to do with clean versus unclean. And the words "kosher" and "kashrut" appear nowhere in Scripture. |

If anchovies were 100% kosher, some of the more high-end kosher pizzerias would offer them as toppings. With 4 kids under the age of 10, I visit a lot of kosher pizzerias and I have never seen anchovies offered as a topping. |

But my question remains - if anchovies are kosher, why do kosher pizzerias not offer them as a topping? Just because they aren't offered doesn't mean they aren't kosher, or that they couldn't. Um, I am pretty well versed in how kashrut is determined, thank you. I spent the better part of two decades in yeshiva. But then why did you put out the false claim that anchovies (apparently just like any fish of it's type) isn't kosher? There's nothing different about them from other "kosher" fish. |

I think we have a miscommunication about what "traif" means.The word "traif" means different things to different people. To me, a "traif" animal is (1) any animal or fish that is specifically delineated in the Torah as being so and (2) any kosher animal that is made traif by its not being prepared as per Jewish law. For example, my best friend in law school was Roman Catholic. His mother would always invite me for dinner and I always had to politely decline for kashrus reasons. One day, my friend told me that his mother decided to surprise me by visiting a glatt kosher butcher store in Kew Gardens Hills (where I grew up) and bought steaks, which she had duly prepared in her oven in her house in Garden City. I felt awful when I had to decline again because the kosher meat was prepared in a traif oven and therefore had become traif. And yes, it is true that the word "traif" does not appear in the Torah. "Traif" is actually a Yiddish word that evolved from the Hebrew word tarefa, meaning "carrion". A carrion is the carcass of a dead animal which is considered unkosher in the Torah. |

I have NEVER seen a pizza place that doesn't offer them. I think Easy said he mostly eats at chain pizza places though, and I don't think the chains offer them. Chain pizza places are like chain burger joints, the same mediocre food, and not much diversion from what the chain sets. |

I'm not saying that anchovies are not kosher. I did say that I wasn't aware that they are but I now stand corrected. But the question remains as to why kosher pizza shops don't offer them to people who have no problem mixing fish and dairy (like me). |
