She has definitely posted pictures in trief restaurants.

Many in the left wing MO will eat “kosher” food in treif restaurants. Salad, pastries or anything vegetarian. Yes, it’s a thing 😏

Obviously this is bothering you and I get that but she has literally said in regard to a recipe her son posted sans bacon that the pig is the best part. She does not pretend to be Orthodox, Modern or otherwise.

I’m confused - why are people trying to convince others that she is religious when she herself does not pretend to be?

Her husband owns (or owned) a non kosher eatery that is open 7 days a week.

I have relatives in this world so I know it’s “a thing”, but this has no relevance to this influencer . She had never identified as currently religious (not even LWMO).

OH I didn’t know that! I’m not an avid follower so I def could’ve missed it. But I have seen other influencers who do claim to be MO (left wing) eat food with kosher ingredients in non kosher restaurants.

Now that I’m thinking about it she often posts her husband praying with Tallis and Tefilin so I assumed they are marginally frum.

Her son may not be religious, not sure what him posting a picture of food without bacon has anything to do with her (and she may have meant facon which has become popular in the Orthodox Jewish foodie world).

That’s not what I wrote but this is not worth arguing about. I appreciate that you don’t want to accept that she’s not frum.

Correction, she is not your version of frum, probably lots of women on this site arent your version of frum either. That is the beauty of being Jewish, that we can all respect each other and leave our Jewish beliefs/observance between woman and God instead of judging and knocking each other or speaking loshon hora.

What does she mean by ' I used to dance on tables today I open boxes on tables '?

Maybe shes MO maybe she LWMO maybe shes frum maybe shes not.
The point is she definitely is not "tznius" which was the original complaint.

What defines someone as frum? Keeping Shabbos, kosher, and Taharas Hamishpacha? Does everything else fall into the category of keeping more is RWO keeping less is MO?

Jewish doesn't automatically mean frum. She doesn't hold herself as frum, she doesn't claim to be frum. No one is trying to knock her, she's very open about her lifestyle. It's not a secret that she's not frum.

Yeah, I’m not getting the resentment here either. No one is bashing her. She is openly not frum yet very proudly Jewish, hence the Jewish content and photos. Yes, eating treif makes you not frum, period. She does a ton of good for the Jewish community- still doesn’t make her frum, by anyone’s definition.
