We’ve been hearing all about this trendy new “Kosher” diet.

Now we can actually try it!!!!!!

A Jew by the name of Asser Levy is now the first Kosher butcher in America. His shop is in New Amsterdam along that street with the really big wall (constructed to defend from the Dutch and the Indians).

This is a big step for the Jews, having their own butcher and all!

We’ll try anything if it makes us skinny!!!

You’ve seen this tumblr by now, but this is just the best.

(One of my forebears was the kosher butcher in Fargo, ND for a while.)
