But I discovered over the years that kosher is not any more humane than any other way of getting animal food, and life will go on, kosher or not. Although I have to say...the addition of milkshakes to the meal...now that just isn't right LOL...but having worked with older people 25+ years, and becoming older myself, bless them all for doing this and keeping themselves healthy and alive.

With all the Chabads and JFSs and synagogues of all denominations, how can they let a group of elderly and infirm Jews with a spark of Yiddishkeit feel that the only way they can experience the joys of Shabbat is to celebrate Shabbat at Wendy’s?<br /><br />Shame on the Jewish community. I hope that this film will be a wake-up call and that one of the organizations who shout “social justice” for non-Jews will create a meaningful, kosher, and fulfilling way for these old Jewish folks to have a weekly wholesome Shabbat experience.<br /><br />Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10910917666491102989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6849096789079758312.post-6631095037233432672018-02-17T19:14:15.981-05:002018-02-17T19:14:15.981-05:00Horrible.

Shame on the website for showing this<br /><br />Just as simple as googling kosher places in town. Being a Jew is a full time committment, not a pick and choose thing. Hmmm. I think I will be a good American, but rob a bank when I need money but hey!! I can be good again tomorrow.<br />J Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01016234369984518751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6849096789079758312.post-3360563879022088512018-02-16T18:44:56.943-05:002018-02-16T18:44:56.943-05:00So nice, to have traditions, prayers, and belongin...So nice, to have traditions, prayers, and belonging and togetherness as we age.

Many older adults face isolation from friends and family. This space provided for community and celebration, and should be lauded, not criticized.
