Kosher and Halal are not the same

It's important to note that one who keeps one set of dietary laws cannot necessarily rely on the other. For example, while Muslims and Jews share the prohibition against pork and mixing mild and meat, animals that are supervised under Halal are not necessarily kosher. People who keep kosher must decide which set of kosher certification organizations they will hold by, such as the familiar OU (U inside a circle) which is the symbol of the Orthodox Union.

Happy Travels
