Non Jews always wonder, is kosher meat really better than non kosher meat? Of course, the answer depends on what you mean by better.
Judaism has a certain set of rules and regulations for the "kashrut" process that may sway your opinion.
So let's put these into categories.
1) For your wallet: Kosher meat is not better for your wallet by far.
In some cases, kosher meat costs over twice as much as regular meat.
The reasons for this are many.
One, it's not like religious Jews have an option to buy non kosher if the prices get too high.
Two, not every kosher animal is necessarily kosher to be eaten.
They have to maintain a certain level of health and they have to be slaughtered properly.
If something goes wrong during the slaughtering process, the meat is not kosher.
Three, once again, it has to be slaughtered properly, and someone has to be the slaughterer of the meat, otherwise known as the Shochet.
2) For your health: There are no regulations as to fat content, sodium content, drugs, hormones, human living conditions, or otherwise in the requirements for kosher meat.
Therefore, there is not much about kosher meat that is actually healthier than non kosher.
In fact, kosher meat may be worse for you because of the high salt content, since it has to be salted before eaten in order to soak up all the blood.
The only way you can get out of the salting process is if you either eat it raw, or roast it over an open fire.
However, since all kosher meat you can get in the store comes presalted, there's not much opportunity for you to come into contact with unsalted kosher meat.
3) For your soul: If you're Jewish, there is no doubt that kosherized meat is better for your soul than non kosher.
Just try to stay away from corrupt meat that hires illegal immigrants for slave wages and doesn't treat its animals humanely.
It would be best if you are Jewish to learn kosher slaughter yourself and kill your own meat, so you'll a) eat less of it and b) raise it more humanely.
This is pretty much how it was done back then on a small town scale.
Every town had a shochet (slaughterer) and everyone knew him.
It wasn't industrialized and removed from every day life as it is now.
If you aren't Jewish, then kosher meat isn't going to do anything for your soul.
If you want to convert to Judaism, I'd advise against it.
The world might turn on them again at any time now.
4) For your taste buds: Kosher meat probably isn't better for your taste buds for several reasons.
First of all, once again, it has to be salted.
If you don't like salty meat, it won't be good for your taste buds.
Second, Jews can't eat blood.
Most gravy is blood-based.
So there isn't any good gravy that comes with this type of meat.
Third, Jews generally don't eat filet mignon because it contains the sciatic nerve, which Jews can't eat either because of an ancient wrestling match between Jacob and an angel.
They can eat it if the nerve is taken out, but that is very rare and expensive a process.
Fourth, there's no preparatory steps that would make kosher meat taste any better aside from the fact that it is not as mass produced, which might make a difference, but since I've never eaten non kosher food, I can't be sure.
5) For putting on a rattle snake bite: Probably better since the salt will suck up more of the poison, but don't take my word for it.
