The chicken sandwich or the cheeseburger. Jews do not eat pork because they are cloven hooved animals that do not chew their cud. They don't eat shrimp because they do not have fins or scales. The animals that are killed are killed in a kosher slaughter, and salted prior to cooking/eating.

LOL --- a good one does have at least a little pork... such as a bacon cheeseburger..

 

According to Jewish dietary law, meat products are prohibited to be consumed with milk or products derived from milk, such as cheese. So a cheeseburger cannot be kosher.
