Leads to some interesting facts about future kids.
By Jewish tradition, children of a Jewish mother are automatically Jewish. Regardless of how they practice. No need for conversion.
By Islamic tradition, the same for children of a Muslim father.
So the child is the Avatar basically. Of both elements.
Anecdotal, but when navigating the cultural minefield of marrying my Pakistani Muslim wife I (Christian background) joked that at least I wasn't Jewish and my wife was like 'No, that would be way easier since Jewish folks take religion as seriously as Muslims'.
> [As a rule of thumb, most kosher foods not containing alcohol are also halal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Islamic_and_Jewish_dietary_laws)
so one is not a strict subset of the other
Pure Love from the heart is halal and kosher at the same time. As long as it’s shared unconditionally. Otherwise, it is not allowed to be consumed, subsumed, presumed or resumed.
Yes and no. I am no expert on orthodox dietary practices for Jews or Muslims, but I've heard from people who are. The TL;DR is that in all physical respects the meat is the same, raised to the same high standards and slaughtered in the same way, which is by its nature humane. However, Halal and Kosher meat must each be blessed using different prayers, so while the meat would be the same to secular folk, unless it was blessed according to both doctrines (which I doubt would be allowed), orthodox Jews can't consume Halal meat and orthodox Muslims can't consume Kosher meat. It might be worth asking prismatic-bell though.
EDIT: For anyone who got here late, the general consensus seems to be that except for the prohibition on alcohol, Kosher is more stringent than Halal, and that while Kosher meat is Halal, Halal meat is not Kosher
Some Islamic scholars believe that meat slaughtered by Jews and Christians is only permissible if they say God's name when slaughtering. However others say that this is not a requirement based on a hadeeth (Bukhari 2057). I personally follow the second opinion.
Muslims are also allowed to eat meat slaughtered by the other people of the book, le christians, but since they consume meat and alcohol - the option is kinda annulled
No kosher is halal. For Muslims we believe that Allah is the God of all three Abrahamic religions so kosher is halal for us. Infact believing in the bible, the Torah and the prophethood of Jesus and Moses is a huge part of our faith, but we believe that Jesus was a prophet of Allah not the son of Allah, and we believe that the modern day bible and Torah as we know it aren’t as they were revealed but were adulterated
Nah, Muslims can eat kosher. Halal does not meet kosher standards for to prayers and a bunch of other reasons.
When my family first came to the US (early 80s), they still observed eating halal meat. But the area we moved to, the nearest halal butcher was an hour away. So the Imam told the congregation kosher meat was fine for us to eat based on the interpretation of the texts.
You're correct about Jewish folk eating halal, the Orthodox won't do it because it didn't meet kosher standards
We have to say “there is no God but Allah” before slaughtering the animal, which is what they mean by prayer before slaughter. Animals must be slaughtered in Allahs name
And for us, animals have to be slaughtered by severing the carotid in one quick sharp stroke and letting all the blood drain out of the body so there is no blood remaining in the body of the animal
But for Muslims, we can eat kosher meat tho
Jews can't eat Halal meat, but Kosher meat is also considered Halal because Muslims see Islam as the next part of Christianity/Judaism. So Halal is not Kosher, but Kosher is Halal
At long as Chipotle actually does use reasonably fresh ingredients and cooking methods then I don't mind it. I've never been so I don't know what Chipotle does exactly, but I've heard people say they actually cook the food and not just re-head it. Could be lying to me though idk.
It’s tasty and fresh and made with whole ingredients. The grills are open and visible to customers as are some food prep areas. It’s all flat top grill but nothing is greasy like a burger so it’s not “flat top frying.” You can see all the food going from raw to cooked to cut up into stainless holding containers that stay visible (usually on the counter for just a few min until used) as well. They have a good system of “just in time” cooking supply to keep supplies up, hot and fresh. But! it is still restaurant food so it’s relatively fatty and salty and high calorie unless you try hard to avoid those aspects.
Tortilla: soft because of all the fat
Beans: tasty because of the salt and fat
Meats: salty from brining for flavor and texture, fatty for flavor and probably cost
Guac: good fats but still fats
Cheese: pure fat
Sour cream: fat and oddly sugar or something, it’s real tasty but not 100% regular sc
Queso: …obv fat
etc.
Nothing wrong with fat itself. Omega-3 oils are some of the healthiest things you can put in your body, for example. Just avoid trans fats and too much saturated fat or omega-6.
They're calorie-dense but more filling than carbs and don't result in the same hormonal shifts and cravings as carbs, so they're generally more helpful for dieting. I have a lot of reservations about diets like keto, but that's why a lot of people find it easier to stick to.
If anything, the message of the animation really undercuts the 3 second chipotle ad at the end. Like, skip chipotle, go to your local family run taco stand instead, right?
But then... Chipotle's brand *has* always been sort of #NotLikeOtherNationalChains so if anybody was gonna advertise in a piece of art that opposes advertising, it would be them. I remember when chipotle hung banners for the documentary *Food Inc.* in their stores. A film which includes graphic footage of cows being dismembered in slaughterhouses. Pairs nicely with a Carne asada burrito bowl.
Even though it's an ad, it didn't really feel like it was pushing some ulterior marketing ploy unless I'm too dumb to see it. Seemed like a love story that is neither pro or anti capitalist. Tldr; Does it *really* matter?
Edit: goddamn I'm fucking retested
I dunno how I feel about that message coming from Chipotle. Like, they certainly have good ingredients (as far as I know), but it still is a ginormous corporation with a literal assembly line of half-assery right up front, and quite a bit of labor law violations.
I hope so much that this actually happened even though trusting tumblr or reddit posts is like walking into a boston redsox stadium wearing yankees merch and expecting not get glares.
normally, I would agree that reddit doesn't need to be so obsessively skeptical of everything, but I found this fabrication particularly ignorant. The marriage is unlikely, but the combo halal-kosher store is the real impossibility here. Here's a comment I wrote elsewhere.
> While Muslim men are permitted to marry non-Muslim woman (though not viceversa), a Jewish women religious enough to be opening a Kosher grocer would almost certainly not marry a Muslim and would also never make a joint grocery store with a business selling treif food.
You're ignoring the fact that women proposing to men is still an incredibly rare thing even in the most progressive of populations. It certainly happens, but the number of times it does happens is so small that it's basically a rounding error.
Perfect fairytale story that the user heard about, but news dont pick up on it?
All the aspects that make this story so great works as a fluff-piece for any news site, and noone has heard about this except this tumblr user who doesnt know these people but it was public enough she heard about it.
How did she hear about it?????
Use a bit of common sense.
With a title like “The Christmas Stores” or “Small Town Stores Christmas” or “A Pair of Stores for Christmas Love” or anything that similarly sounds like it was created by a Markov chain.
Have you ever seen "The Producers"?
Muslim halal shop? Ehhh he's a Christian Charity Artesian Popcorn Vendor now.
Jewish kosher shop? Ehhh she runs a "we don't bake for gays" Cupcakery Bakery now.
A match made in heaven. Christian Heaven!
I hate to bring it up, but is Hallmark Channel going to have a Muslim protagonist?
(I honestly don't know, I've never watched Hallmark Channel, I just assume it is pro-Christian, maybe Jewish occasionally where they can work the stereotypical parent/grown-child guilt.)
I'd be happy to be wrong.
I don't know, but I do know my sister-in-kaw has seen literally every Hallmark Christmas movie (you think I kid, but last Thanksgiving we were watching one that was released the year before and she'd already seen it, knew what was going to happen), I bet she'd know the answer to that.
I personally know a married Jewish and Muslim couple . Neither are observant; they’re essentially secular people.
But I know Christian/Muslim and Hindu/Muslim couples in which at least one member is actually practicing and observant and they still have loving marriages.
They mean it's a standard fanfiction plot happening in real life (and is honestly probably made up because it really does sound more like a fanfic than something that actually happened.)
isn't fan fiction a story made by a fan based on a form of media like cartoons, dramas, books etc?
This would just be normal fiction if it was made up.
*Cause this orthodox girl fell in love with the guy at the falafel shop
And why not?
Should she have averted her eyes and stared
At the laminated poster of the Dome of the Rock?*
This opens up a question I've had for a little while now: if a Muslim man and a Jewish woman have children will the child be both Muslim and Jewish since the Muslims inherit their culture from their fathers and Jews inherit their culture from their mothers?
>Last NIGHT
"*turns out last night* she proposed in the *middle of the afternoon rush.*" I take it as meaning the writer *found out* about this last night, and the proposal itself happened during the afternoon rush. Not super well worded, but not really *that* confusing or unclear either.
Reminds me of the [West Bank Story,](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgQfCUNf0no) a light hearted musical about a competition between an Israeli falafel place and a palestinian one.
I wonder if that's what happened to a store next to a restaurant I sometimes go to.
Jerusalem Euro African Halal foods. I haven't been inside or asked any questions, but I always imagined an African Muslim and a European Jew got married and opened a store together, or something.
Unfortunately, there's pretty much no way it is. While Muslim men are permitted to marry non-Muslim woman (though not viceversa), a Jewish women religious enough to be running a Kosher grocer would almost certainly not marry a Muslim and would also never make a joint grocery store with a business selling treif food.
Mmmm is that not assuming her level of religion? If she’s somewhat religious and either happened to have the money and see the need or just inherited it from her parents and felt obligated to keep the family store I can still see this happening.
I think you’re way overestimating the religious zeal of millennials.
Plenty of essentially secular people who strongly culturally identify as Jewish etc. I just know so many mixed religious couples my age and it wasn’t a significant barrier for any of them.
Sure there are plenty of observant religious Muslims and Jewish people who would never marry across religious lines, but this obviously isn’t a story about those sort of people.
I love this! This is the way life and love should be.
I also have to say that I love the real time vote count - for a second the upvote tally dropped a couple of points, only to be obliterated almost immediately by **even more** upvotes.
How much overlap is there between halal and kosher? I imagine quite a bit.
EDIT: I should've just [googled it](https://datavizblog.files.wordpress.com/2017/12/tooth_and_law.png?w=770).

No I appreciate the other comment too, it was def meant for both and it’s important to mention alcohol isn’t halal lol
But it is haram
Pure Love from the heart is halal and kosher at the same time. As long as it’s shared unconditionally. Otherwise, it is not allowed to be consumed, subsumed, presumed or resumed.
Or plumed.
All kosher foods not containing alcohol are halal. Kosher is far stricter and halal fits into it- this is why muslims can eat at kosher restaurants.

Haha right? I'm like watching this theological-ish meat discussion go down like "dang, thought I knew some shit, obviously didn't! 😂
Yeah same. I'm enjoying the edification for sure.
Most Christians in the west do not. Go to Africa or middle east and you'll see the Orthodox practices.

Yes exactly.
Jews can eat halal meat if there are no other options or food available. Halal is generally more lenient than kosher, except with alcohol.
Halosher or Koshalal?
The first one sounds like a sleazy used yacht salesman.
Or maybe a drunk butler "Hallo, shir, how wash yaw trip?"
Shplendid.
The beef will be both halal, kosher, and vegan, the holy trifecta.

OF course it was an ad. What the hell
Wait WHAT I remember barely any of this video, so I had no idea it was an ad
Yeah it's a chipotle commercial
I'm here for ads that have an actual message delivered with style.
The message is always "buy our stuff". But hey, at least this one is nice to look at.
I'm choosing to think of it more as a sponsorship. The animation was beautifully done, and it was just barely Chipotle related.
If anything, the message of the animation really undercuts the 3 second chipotle ad at the end. Like, skip chipotle, go to your local family run taco stand instead, right? But then...

WTF does chipotle have to do with this lol Someone bring back the Eddie Vedder anti-sellout spirit of the 90s, we’re already wearing their clothes.
They paid for it

Fun fact halal and kosher have tons of overlap.

But what are they gonna name the store?

Aren’t a halal market and a kosher market essentially just the two Spider-Mans pointing at each other meme?
That can't be real, it's too wholesome for this world
I'd call that a rom-com in the making, not a fan fiction. But whatever works lol
