We've all had them, the strange thoughts that lead to questions you'd like to ask a Rabbi but, it seems a bit embarrassing. If any of this leads to answers that's great but, the idea here is to get these questions out and make each other laugh a bit, "Hey, I had a question like that too!" type of thought. So let's begin.
1. Is it acceptable to eat a cheese omelet?
2. Why do you get roast beef constantly in hospitals if they bother to care about your religion at all?
3. Is there any fast food that is kosher?
4. Are soy allergies common among Jews and if so why is so much of it used even in Jewish version of Cup-o-Noodles?

Unless your throwing bacon in the cheese omelet its fine 2. Calling a low quality meat "roast beef" makes it sound more like comfort food. 3. There are a few "fast food" kosher chains, however they aren't nearly as common an non-kosher chains. Some examples are Dougies and Kosher Delight 4. I have no idea but I haven't seen it often

3. There are some fast food restaurants that belong to chains that aren't kosher, but that have gotten independent (store-by-store) kosher certification. For instance, the Dunkin' Donuts near to my house is certified kosher, though most Dunkin' Donuts aren't. There are also kosher Krispy Kreme, Dairy Star, Burger King (Tel Aviv), McDonald's (Jerusalem -- if they've corrected the problems they had a few years ago), and probably several others. In each case, the chain isn't kosher, but the individual branch has found it worthwhile to remove non-kosher ingredients and items, separate meat menu items from dairy menu items (in most cases, only serve either meat or dairy, not both), and have an on-site mashgiach (kashrut supervisor) to make sure there are no errors in kashrut.

If I'm not mistaken, the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf sells kosher food and drink.

I have no questions that I couldn't ask my rabbi, and why couldn't you ask your rabbi those four things?

Lumanny the Space Jew I'm sorry, but what is the point of this thread? sweatdrop I have no questions that I couldn't ask my rabbi, and why couldn't you ask your rabbi those four things? Some people are frightened of making fools of themselves by asking obvious questions they, personally, don't know the answers to.

Thank you Behatzlacha-S for getting the point. This discussion is for questions that you don't know the answers to but, can seem embarrassing or obvious to a more experienced/educated Jew.
