Clarified: Religious dietary restrictionsIn cooking, the process of clarification entails straining out extraneous muck from liquids so that they might be pure, clear and ideal for consumption. Our sister blog, Eatocracy, is setting out to do the same with a series on the world's dietary tribes. The first installment delves into the dietary restrictions of 12 religions in the hopes of cooking up a little interfaith understanding. Learn which group looks to yogurt and fresh vegetables for enlightenment and whose holy men eschew the digestive effects of legumes and crucifers. |

Well the cow next to the hungry looking fellow seems to be an inference.
If your religion prohibits you from eating certain foods and you're now hungry, despite having food available, your religion is dangerous and needs to be either modified or discarded.
It's a good thing that Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are built on a solid foundation of verifiable, testable, falsifiable, and empirical facts, huh? And CNN, stop deleting comments with which you do not agree. I guess it's the same reason you refuse to print cartoons the depict the Islamic prophet Mohammed, yet will show video and photos of the faithful denouncing the cartoons and calling for "death to the infidels!" Cowards.
Simply more religious mumbo-jumbo!!!
