Vegan Kashrut and Restaurants/Convenience Stores Abroad
Question
Rabbi Michael Abraham, I am vegan and interested in traveling abroad.
I would be happy to know what kashrut criteria I need to be careful about when eating in a restaurant or buying food in convenience stores.
Answer
Hello,
As a rule, you should pay attention to worms/insect infestation, orlah, their wine, the kashrut of utensils (if they were used for meat or dairy), and more.
