Jan. 1, 2013 - PRLog -- Joy of Kosher with Jamie Geller, the world’s largest Jewish food community, announced the launch of the
second annual Best of Kosher awards (http://www.joyofkosher.com/best-of-kosher-2012/), an online contest recognizing the best of kosher in seven exciting
categories, as voted by visitors to http://JoyofKosher.com.

Beginning January 1, 2013 through Feburary 7th, visitors to JoyofKosher.com can nominate any eligible
company or brand and vote for their favorite nominee in up to seven categories, including: Best Kosher
Restaurant, Best Kosher Chef, Best New Kosher Cookbook, Best New Kosher Product, Best Kosher Blog, Best
Kosher Catering Company and Best Kosher Wine.

Winners will be announced online on February 8, 2012 and in the March issue of Joy of Kosher with Jamie
Geller, a popular bi-monthly print magazine featuring exclusive kosher recipes, scrumptious food photos,
inspiring entertaining ideas and interviews with leading kosher chefs and Jewish cookbook authors.

“We are so excited for another year of our Best of Kosher awards,” said Jamie Geller, best-selling author of the Quick & Kosher cookbook series and co-founder of the Kosher Media Network, which publishes the Joy of Kosher website and print magazine. “Each year we get to showcase the amazing creativity and innovation taking place every day in the kosher food world.”

What was once only a tiny niche in the specialty food marketplace, is now very much mainstream. The market for kosher-certified foods in the U.S. alone represent a $12.5 billion market, according to a 2008 report by research firm Mintel International Group, a 64% increase from five years earlier.

Millions of people eat kosher products every day without even knowing it. Juices, cereals, yogurts, soft drinks, rice, pasta and beans are commonly found in stores nationwide with reliable kosher certification. Consumers who strictly observe the Jewish dietary laws require special certification on all products they bring into their home and only eat at dining establishments that are under rabbinical supervision.

The Best of Kosher awards will leverage the power of social media to allow brands and companies to promote their products and services to fans and followers on Facebook, Twitter and the social web. Nominees can
download a special “badge” to display on their own website to encourage more votes during this innovative five-week long competition and follow the results in real-time on JoyofKosher.com.

Joyofkosher.com combines recipe sharing with comprehensive social networking. Members can post, rate, search and share recipes, discover creative menu ideas, interact with other foodies and read interesting articles every day of the week. New members can register in just a couple of minutes, and the site is completely free.

“JoyofKosher.com is a website for everyone who loves celebrating food with family and friends,” explains Geller, “whether you keep kosher or are just kosher curious, you will find the best of kosher on our website.”
