Lamb as Clean Food

Can we buy lamb that is not marked glatt kosher or kosher in a grocery store? We know lamb is a clean food but want to know if there are any specific instructions to purchasing it. Thank you

Answer:

Lamb is a “clean” animal (it is on the biblical list of “clean” animals) irrespective of how it is slaughtered.

However, to be Kosher it must be slaughtered in accordance with ritual Jewish law.

For a non-Jewish person there is no obligation to eat Kosher food, and this applies specifically to Jews.

Best wishes.
