My other-half, and a few good friends of mine, keep Kosher*. They tend to order the Kosher meal for Y/W, but stick to the standard menu for J/F. Why? Because there is usually a fish option or vegetarian option which is tastier than the Hermolis meal.

*Without getting too detailed, there are varying degrees of Kosher, but only the strictest would refuse to eat fish/vegetarian on the plane.
Without going too much off topic, I am one of those you call "only the strictest". I only eat kosher supervised food. I usually travel in F with BA, sometimes in J. The kosher meals I have had from Hermolis have almost always been excellent (unless they are breakfast) and have often received envious looks from the crews. If you take a look at the thread about BA food, you will find some of my pictures. The only thing I can't get with the kosher meal is soup. Never mind. It would be nice, but I can get a kosher soup in the CCR beforehand.
