To understand this sign you have to understand that Kosher food is not food.

  1. I don’t have a problem with this. If I saw it, say on our Social Hall kitchen door, I would immediately understand. Especially in our situation, where some people may not KNOW what would be kosher and what would not, it makes perfect sense to make a blanket rule that NO outside food is allowed. Even if somebody DOES know for sure, since our kitchen has to be set up for either Milk or Meat, bringing kosher meat in when it is set up for milk would violate kashrut.

  2. Debbie Your point is well made if you are only speaking to those who understand and agree with the context. But in a semi public place like the social hall in Arcadia perhaps the sign should suggest why “no food is allowed” in the kitchen.

  3. This issue has been discussed for many years. The sign was there when we were setting up the pre-school 30 years ago.
