"The videotape by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, which shows a steer struggling to its feet and walking into a corner after its throat has been cut and its trachea and esophagus are dangling out, has caused a furor among Jewish organizations and rabbis around the world."


Kosher Slaughter (Shechitah)
This is the first component of additional costs. The slaughter is performed by a "shochet"
(a man of skill, piety and expertise).

1. Neck area is clean
2. Severing of the trachea and esophagus
3. Cut is within the proper area
4. No hesitation
5. No pressing
6. No tearing


That's it, I will have kosher meat flown in from now on!
