To start things off it is important to understand the basics of what Rosh Hashanah means for the Jewish faith. The Jewish holiday, Rosh Hashanah, is one of the four New Year rituals performed by the Jewish faith. In particular Rosh Hashanah means “head of the year”, and represents the New Year for people, animals, and legal contracts. This day is used to celebrate the creation of man and the world.

What’s with the honey you ask? The honey is one of several symbolic foods consumed during Rosh Hashanah. During what is known as “Rosh Hashanah seder”, blessings are recited over several of the traditional symbolic foods which are soon consumed. Honey has long been a known for its sweet properties. Because of this, it is consumed during this time in hopes that they might be blessed with a sweet year. Other foods consumed during this time include pomegranates, pumpkin filled pastries, beets, and a whole fish with the head intact.
