Sorry, pet peeve: halacha is much more than dietary laws. Also, there’s a lot of variety in Orthodox movements and the various traditions (Ashkenazi, Sephardic, etc.)

I am not Jewish (though I went to school with everyone from secular/liberal and reformed through varying degrees of conservative), so I happily accept correction. I was not trying to imply that adherence to the dietary laws is sufficient, only it is a shorthand way to eliminate people who don't qualify under anybody's definition.
