It is customary to eat dairy foods on the first day of Shavuos. However, we are also obligated to eat meat on Shabbos and Yom Tov. Therefore, one should take caution to rinse the mouth out and wait approximately one hour (six hours after "hard cheese") between the dairy foods and any meat meals which follow

Did You Know...

Shavuos means not only "weeks" but also "oaths." The name indicates that, on the day of the giving of the Torah, G-d and Israel exchanged oaths to remain faithful to each other forever. The true sanctification and holiness of the Jews began at Mattan Torah. Therefore, any "shchitah" done prior to Shavuos was not "kosher" for them afterwards. This holds true even according to those opinions which maintain that the Jews kept the laws of kashrus before Mattan Torah. Being that the Torah was given on Shabbos, they were not permitted to "schecht" that day. Hence, the only thing available for them to eat was dairy. This is one reason we eat dairy on Shavuos. Another reason we eat dairy on Shavuos is because the word "cholov" (milk) has the numerical value of forty. This corresponds to the forty days which Moshe Rabeinu spent on Har Sinai to receive the Torah. Best Wishes for a Happy Shavuos
