Muslims are not allowed to eat:

· meat of pork

· meat of dead animals

· meat of animals dedicated to any than Allah

· meat of animals killed by any means but not slaughtered

· meat of wild animals with a canine tooth and of any bird with talons

Quran says (meaning English translation):

"Forbidden to you are the flesh of dead animals and blood and the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to any other than Allah, and that which has been killed by strangling or by beating or by falling or by being gored, and that which has been (partly) eaten by a wild beast except that which you make lawful by slaughtering (before its death), and that which has been sacrificed to idols...." (Quran, chapter 5, Verse 3)

Prophet Mohamed (peace be on him) states also that:

"forbade the eating of any wild animals with a canine tooth and of any bird with talons."

In addition, Muslims are not allowed to drink alcohols or blood.
All food is allowed for Muslims to eat except what is explicity forbidden in Quran and by prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Refer top question below.
Meat or fish which is not killed by Dbahabihah (i.e. haram) but some may accept kosher. All alcohol is banned, except for scientific use. Pork and Gelatin is forbidden.
