Nothing Wishy-Washy. Second reason for the high cost of kosher meat: butcher shops, also supervised by rabbis, must scrupulously trim fat from, all meat. "The Jewish housewife is very particular," says Jack Price, a director of the Chicago Kosher Butchers Association. "She doesn't care about price.
