Non Kosher salt is cursed by Gd because the Na and Cl had gay sex together.

I don't find this jokes about Torah issues, and naming G-d, funny at all.

Regarding salt, I once saw Kosher Salt in a Jewish Market, and I asked an Orthodox Jew why. He said that since salt is milled, it needs supervison, lest it's milled in a non Kosher container. However another Jew told me that it was a very stringent opinion, and not really neccesary.

Tzwi, where have you learned that pork was allowed by the prophets for a time? I have never heard it!!!

I have heard it mentioned in a shiur by Rav Mizrahi Shlita.

 NOt a Rabbi, but a Prophet. In that short specific time it was allowed, when the Jews conquered the land of Israel and had all this property and animals from the Cannanites. A Prophet- from G-d's orders made a decree that for that period of time (ONLY)they could have eaten specifically pig.

Tzvi Ben Roshel1:
These are the ones that you shall not eat... and the chazir for it splits its hoof but the cud it chews not (Leviticus 11, 4-7).

Why is its name called chazir? Because the Holy Name Blessed Be He will return it to Israel.
It is cited in Ritva Kiddushin 49b,


The Ohr Hachauym to this verse proposes that in the future time the pig will chew cud and therefore turn into a kosher animal. In Makor Chaim, a supercommentary on Ibn Ezra, R. Shem Tov Ben Falkira is quoted as saying that that the taste of pig meat will become known to the wise ones in the future time, not by eating actual pig, but through their wisdom they will be able to perceive it in other foodstuffs

What's the difference between Kosher salt (NaCl) and non Kosher salt (NaCl)?

kosher salt, isn't talking about kashrut, but some sort of cooking thing

When the day were to come that pigs actually do this, I don't think I would desire to eat it...what do the Rabbis say about people who feel that way?
