Sometimes nothings better than a muslim/Jewish tray like I had in the county jail.

The last thing I think of when I see what looks like sausage gravy is "Muslim cuisine"

You know it.

Not entirely sure how it can be both Halal and Kosher but I imagine it's close enough to both for anyone to give too much of a damn.

[-]

moby561@reddit

Anything Kosher is automatically Halal but idk if it’s goes the other way around.

[-]

DanJDare@reddit

At the risk of being painful isn't there a different in the slaughtering practice? I don't imagine kosher meat being slaughtered with an Islamic prayer.

[-]

In Islam, consumption of food from the “People of the Book” are considered Halal. This is not universal amongst all Muslims, but most Sunni diaspora in the US that care enough about only eating Halal would agree with the sentiment. Growing up, not being able to eat food prepared by Christians (given the US is Christian and Christians are also People of the Book) was explained away by the idea that Christians used to have dietary restrictions and guidelines that they stopped following. Not sure if there’s actually any truth of that in reality but the general consensus.

I am (lol clearly) not a religious scholar of any sort but I have read that Christianity used to have a ton of orthodox rules on fasting and dietary guidelines that fell by the wayside at some point. Coz I was specifically curious as to when the dietary rules of Christianity fell off and what they used to be. I was interested in religious fasting, feasting, etc.

Frankly (opening myself up to being cancelled here especially as an agnostic) but the amount of people who are apparently christian yet embody none of the values nor adhere to any of the tenets of the religion beyond (maybe) lobbing up to church once a week leads me to question what's left of it by and large. I understand that Christianity is a biiig collection of religions.

That’s what I was told as a kid about Christians BUT that’s being told to me by other Muslims. I’m, also, not a scholar but growing up my dad was pretty conservative, but today I live per secularly.

Jewish prayers are to the same God as Muslim prayers so it's all good. In the past, our neighbourhood used to be mixed, and everyone would share food.

Kosher being automatically halal is not true save some opinions. Some alcohols are kosher, but it definitely does not make it halal. Same with meat, the butcher has to do the process in accordance to halal standards.

[-]

moby561@reddit

Obviously the item but be halal but the meat is considered zabeeha.

[-]

Ruiner5@reddit

It does not. Although there’s been some discussions on whether it’s better to eat halal over non kosher if there’s no kosher food around. Some people say it is, some people say it doesn’t matter at that point since halal food isn’t kosher anyway

[-]

moby561@reddit

I didn’t think so because Kosher tends to be more stringent than Halal. But growing up my father only ate Halal and Kosher was usually the only option in South Florida in the early 2000’s.

cant mix meat and milk in Kosher food. so if this is creamed chipped beef def not kosher

[-]

natfutsock@reddit

I thought that was just parve specifically

[-]

ConsistentCover2527@reddit (OP)

No milk involved

[-]

Thereelgerg@reddit

What's it made of?

[-]

ConsistentCover2527@reddit (OP)

Kosher beef sausage and Kosher bisquick

[-]

Pale_Row1166@reddit

This isn’t kosher, chipped beef has milk. But maybe the prison version doesn’t.

[-]

Nuppusauruss@reddit

The gravy is typically made with milk which would mean it's not kosher.

[-]

azaghal1502@reddit

Chipped beef in a simple gravy, served on toast.

It was a pretty common dish in WW2 military, fittingly named "Shit on a shingle".

[-]

TraciTheRobot@reddit

What’s up with the glop of peanut butter

[-]

ConsistentCover2527@reddit (OP)

It's what they give you instead of pork sausage

[-]

IAMACHRISTMASWIZARD@reddit

i have to know how this is even somewhat equivalent

[-]

godwontpiss@reddit

Protein? Maybe?

[-]

tkot2021@reddit

Protein and fats

[-]

gerblnutz@reddit

I dont think milk and meat is kosher

[-]

ButterRolla@reddit

I would assume the gravy is thickened by starch or flour and not with actual milk.

[-]

Thereelgerg@reddit

Of course it is. Adding milk would thin it out, not thicken it.

I think the question is what's the liquid that's being thickened into a gravy?

[-]

peppermintmeow@reddit

Bisquick.

[-]

ButterRolla@reddit

Oh right, I dunno. Maybe it's just flour and water. Usually when I make gravy I just use meat juices, water, salt and flour.

[-]

DebateZealousideal57@reddit

The liquid you would be thickening with flour for white gravy is butter and milk…

[-]

ConsistentCover2527@reddit (OP)

Good call

[-]

TheDarkNebulous@reddit

I worked at a place that made kosher certified whey protein for a while. Is milk not kosher?

[-]

3-goats-in-a-coat@reddit

Meat in milk is forbidden by the Torah. You can have meat. You can have cheese. But you aren't supposed to put them together.

[-]

RedSparkls@reddit

That’s so sad :( those are like all the best food combinations

[-]

xXAssmaster420Xx@reddit

Not if it's mixed with meat

[-]

FlyingDreamWhale67@reddit

How can shit on a shingle be kosher/halal? It's my understanding that meat and milk can't be mixed in kosher rules, and chipped beef has dairy components.
