Question

Can a Jew eat a kosher animal after it eats a non kosher animal

Answer

Hello & Greetings

The animals that are allowed to eat are animals whose main food is plant-based, and are not carnivorous animals. But even if they were fed the meat of non-kosher animals, this does not forbid the pure animals from eating.

Therefore, even if a kosher animal nurses from an impure animal or a predatory animal, this does not prohibit pure animals from eating. Although after slaughter, if milk is found in their stomach, the milk itself is forbidden to eat.

Indeed, if all the animal’s food was only from foods forbidden to enjoy, such as idolatry, in such a situation there are those who wrote that it is forbidden to eat the kosher animal, but even in this there are those who wrote to permit and as I will point out in the sources.

Welcome

Rabbi David Ohayon
