Actually, they sold "kosher stroopwafels" (I am not familiar with kosher rules, but I cant find any way how stroopwafels would be unkosher based on their ingredients at least) at the Talia dorms! Also a supermarket in Haifa sold them. Best, Lodewijk 2011/8/11 KIZU Naoko &lt;aphaia(a)gmail.com&gt;

I saw "kosher ice cream" elsewhere - iirc if you "cook meat within milk", it's not kosher anymore (sorry the exact passage slips on my mind), and according to the common Judaism interpretation you don't make a dish with milk and meat together (e.g. pizza with sausage is not kosher). In my personal reflective assumption "kosher stroopwafels" might mean it contains dairy but no meat at all; I doubt if anyone has add meat in stroopwafels' recipe since its invention, but same could be said on ice cream (or we have somewhere obscure spam and spam and stroopwafels/ice cream or whatsoever?), Cheers, 2011/8/11 Lodewijk &lt;lodewijk(a)effeietsanders.org&gt;rg>: -- KIZU Naoko / 木津尚子 member of Wikimedians in Kansai / 関西ウィキメディアユーザ会 http://kansai.wikimedia.jp

Kosher stroopwafels would mean for example that every single ingredient is kosher - that the milk is cow's milk and was not mixed with any kind of other milk, that the various additives and chemicals are not somehow made from pork fat (or any other non-kosher animal), that the various machines and tools were not used earlier for meat processing, and even that the stroopwafel was not made on Shabbat. So it's more than the simple rule of mixing dairy with meat. People who really keep kosher (Orthodox Jews) would look for the kosher certification on basically any kind of food they eat (except maybe for fresh fruit and vegetables). People who keep kosher more "lightly" might make do with the knowledge that the stroopwafel recipe is per-se kosher, and would eat stroopwafels that are not kosher certified.
