"There's two things you never want to see in life: how the sausage is made and how taxes are enacted" is a strong contender for edJEWcation merch!
Is there any provision within kosher guidelines for using more modern methods of slaughtering? From what I understand, the current "gold standard" is a bolt gun to the skull which apparently kills the animal instantaneously. Is this method kosher? Is it not considered kosher because it has a certain fail rate?
How insurmountable is it to accommodate kosher-adhering people in your own kitchen? I've got a very small kitchen, so it wouldn't be all that hard to have a duplicate "kosher kit", like a box with separate knives, cutting boards, saute pan, cutlery, plates and such. I can't blowtorch my countertops but I could switch out my mini-island top with a fresh (meat only) board pretty easily. I don't have one of those double-sinks though, so would everything become non-kosher once I washed stuff in that sink?
Also, when i was in college, I abdicated any and all religious responsibilities, which really weren't many, having grown up
eating ON Yom Kippur, but I stopped going to any and all services. All of that. Plus side, I ate such good mussels in college. Like, the best. So yummy. i also miss shrimp. i have never had lobster, and I've had mixed messages on that.

It can be done! I would eat in your non kosher- kosher kitchen.
Yaaaaaaay!!!!!! I would love that!
Kosher bolt-gun sounds pretty bad ass actually. We’ll ask the Rabbi about it…and about the kitchen
That AI song is EPIC.

Lobster looks so good
