The Bite:

You bet your bottom shekel it can. Jew- and gentile-Biters alike can benefit from a Kosher diet's sometimes cleaner, animal-friendlier bent. Starting this Passover (Apr. 20-26), look for the kosher or k parve symbol on the back of the items on your grocery list.

The Benefits:

Avoiding schmutz. Kosher food, especially meat, is held to strict rules regarding cleanliness.
Passing over animal cruelty. Jewish law says that the killing of kosher animals has to minimize the pain inflicted on the critters.
A blessing for vegetarians. "Kosher pareve" means the product contains no dairy or meat derivatives.

Personally Speaking:

Manischewitz was Toshio's favorite alcoholic beverage during his freshman year at college.
