Kashrut is a set of dietary laws determining the foods that Jews are permitted to eat and how they should be prepared.

The Jewish calendar has comparatively few days of fasting. Besides the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur), which is the only fast day prescribed by the Mosaic law, there are only four regular fast days in commemoration of various historical events. Fasting lasts from sunrise to sunset, and the participants abstain from all food and drink, including water.
