Many people have claimed for years that there is a “Kosher Tax” on foodstuffs that we purchase every day from the local grocery store. This is not true.

OF COURSE IT IS. YOU LITERALLY ADMIT IT MERE SENTENCES LATER.

However, many manufacturers have fallen prey to the pressure exerted by Orthodox Jews to certify products as Kosher.

THAT. COSTS. MONEY. It's passed on to the consumer. That's a tax.

Kosher means fit to eat and the Babylonian Talmud explicitly states what a Jew can or cannot eat.

And on what he can prepare his food, and with what he can clean his preparation devices. Which is why TIN FOIL IS KOSHER. AND SOAP IS KOSHER.

This certification process has made millions of dollars

OH LOOK, A TAX. FOR KOSHER. A KOSHER TAX.

You could claim that this is extortion

Or… you could claim that it's a TAX.
