Atlanta Falcons go kosher
Fans of the Atlanta Falcons will be able to enjoy glatt kosher hot dogs next season at the Georgia Dome, according to this week’s Kosher Today update and originally reported in the Atlanta Jewish Times. Thanks to fan David Lubin, MGR Food Services has “agreed to create a cart serving Abels & Heyman hot dogs” and will be staffed by non-profit groups that will earn cash from their sales revenues.
According to the article:
The Atlanta Kashruth Commission (AKC) will oversee the operation of the cart and will approve whomever is designated to staff it. The cart will be in operation at all home games, as long as they do not conflict with Shabbat or Jewish holidays. The gate location of the cart will be announced before the start of the season.
To volunteer your organization, contact Mr. Lubin at (404) 597-5016.
Isn’t it about time we gave Bob Kraft some flack for not offering kosher food at Gillette Stadium? After all, several area synagogues already volunteer their time manning concession stands to raise money. Use this form to e-mail the Patriots front office and politely ask that they consider a kosher concession stand. Feel free to cite the recent news in Atlanta.
Not a Pats fan or a Boston resident anymore, but it’s rid-damn-diculous that they don’t offer kosher food at the Gill. Bob and Myra should be ashamed.
