Israeli Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon has launched a campaign to advocate for the inclusion of kosher food at the cafeteria and in at least one of the restaurants at the United Nations.
Danon wrote in a letter to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, “For many Jews around the world, eating kosher food is a fundamental aspect of religious practice… We believe that all citizens of the world should feel welcome in the UN.”

Many employees at the UN observe the kosher dietary laws, he noted, as do a number of diplomats from around the world. There are no kosher options at any of the eating establishments at the UN.
