Fish is not meat, but I don't remember chicken ever being not meat.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

OK, suddenly my confusion over the ability to have lox AND cream cheese is relieved. Fish is not meat.
Still weird. But useful.
Please note, the other day my best friend called me up in the middle of the day to ask if eggs were kosher. I don't know WHY she decided *I* would know this (or why didn't just...google), but oddly, I was able to answer her. Probably thanks to one discussion or another. (I of course then pointed out to her that if anyone who was seriously into keeping kosher came to this brunch she was planning, they wouldn't eat it anyway, because it wasn't prepared kosher, so....)

Fish is not meat.
In a "don't serve a calf in its mother's milk" sense, neither is chicken (with the whole not giving milk thing). Which always bugged me, even though my family never kept kosher growing up.

Our wings are not tired.
{{Cindy}} So nerve wracking. There have been a number of times that children in my life have had odd symptoms that just go away and remain unexplained. Is Ben otherwise feeling ok? Eating and sleeping normally? Poor pumpkin. No fun getting poked and prodded.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
And then realized you meant some kind of racecar driver. Pshaw.Well a really cute, cute, could be gay, Brit... I mean, I have standards.

Oh, I know -- you misunderstood me. I meant that it always bothered me that chicken counted as meat because chickens don't give milk. There's no physically possible way to cook a chicken in its mother's milk. So they shouldn't count.

Aha! I was thinking you were saying that fowl wasn't considered meat by kosher law. And I was, all, huh?
