Kosher, Halal Foods Meet Demands of Today’s Consumers — But Most Don’t Know It Yet
An interesting news item about Islam and Judaism’s ancient – yet very modern – food quality standards.
Kosher and halal foods — as defined by the sacred dietary laws of Jews and Muslims, respectively — must be produced and processed according to standards that far exceed those imposed by the U.S. government.
“U.S. consumers who are not followers of Judaism or Islam are largely unaware of the specific qualities that distinguish kosher and halal from conventional foods,” says Packaged Facts Publisher Tatjana Meerman. “However, factors related to safety, quality, and ‘truth in labeling’ should prompt these mainstream consumers to seek out kosher/halal more often.”
