If you take a bigger whole though Jesus did "over-ride" the old Mosaic laws (I mean we don't have to sacrifice lambs any more do we?) so maybe that included the food laws?

Know you did Willow, just expanding the meaning to avoid spurious comments. Don't forget the Mosaic law went beyond the ten commandments as many laws on sanitation & food etc were also given to Moses. Many are just applicable today as common sense. While the old laws were condensed by Jesus the main logic remains. As in don't eat pork when there isn't an R in the month, as it goes off quicker in warm weather. Thou shalt not murder being left behind again doesn't make it right to take someones life today, or tommorow!
