Traveling store provides kosher foods
“That shows it’s held to a higher standard,” Greenberg said, because two groups judge the product as meeting kosher standards.
Foods that are kosher adhere to the Jewish dietary laws.
For Rabbi Greenberg, his family, and members of Chabad of Bonita Springs & Estero, there is no question that they eat strictly what is kosher.
But finding kosher foods in Southwest Florida is a challenge, said Luba Greenberg, who cooks for the rabbi and their four young children.
Kosher meats and dairy products are the hardest to find, she said. Kosher on Wheels saves family and friends a trip to Florida’s east coast for foods.
The long trailer, filled with shelves and refrigerators and freezers full of specialty goods and staples, serves a portion of the Jewish religious community with strict beliefs.
But the owner of the traveling business, Shalom Dadon, said people with health food interests often choose to eat kosher foods too.
“They consider kosher foods healthier,” he said.
For example, the chickens processed for the kosher store on wheels are raised free range. That means they are not fed any manufactured food with hormones or chemicals.
