I recall that there was a workplace where I did a network installation, and in the break room there a couple of signs, “Please do not store unkosher food in the refrigerator.” Interestingly enough, there was another, smaller refrigerator with a sign, “Unkosher Food Only.”

Of course, this was a synagogue, and they requested that the non-Jewish staff (there were only a few) store unkosher lunches in the secondary fridge, while drinks or anything else, if kosher, could be stored in the main fridge.

They also requested, but never enforced, a rule that people not bring pork into the breakroom.

Big difference between muslims and Jews, huh?

It is, and I think a lot of people don’t understand.

Jewish people do not attempt to impose Jewish law on non-Jewish people; it’s simply inapplicable.

Now, I personally don’t eat pork, and candidly find the smell of bacon disgusting, but that’s my problem and I wouldn’t demand employees stop eating BLTs.
