I wasn't surprised to see that beef was left out initially. Even without the religious objection, they aren't likely to have much of a market for vat-beef locally because cow-beef isn't desired locally.
But once they go more global, there's a really big market for vat-beef.
And I would love to know of the religious implications of this as well... Both for cow and pig, for various religions and other beliefs, such as veganism.
- edanm 5y agoWhy do you think that cow-beef isn't desired in Israel? We eat plenty of beef.
- wccrawford 5y agoIgnorance of local customs. I don't spend a lot of time thinking about religions and where they're practiced, and just assumed wrongly. Sorry!
- edanm 5y agoNo worries. I thought you might be trying to suggest that Israelis eat less beef compared to e.g. Americans, which is possible, though no idea if that's true.
