Hi rabbi, This whole time I thought of eating kosher as basically not eating meat from outside places, which I’m glad I haven’t been doing. However, I am starting to realize and acknowledge that it’s much more strict than than to the point where not even fish is allowed because restaurants may use the same knife to cut other types of unkosher fish etc. What I’m trying to get to you here is how am I supposed to keep strict kosher especially since I am a teenager living with my parents and they basically only shop at Ralph’s, Trader Joe’s, and stuff like that even though they don’t get meat. Appreciate your help rav!
