goyish 

1. Adjective, referring to something or someone who is not Jewish. Derived from "goy" - a Hebrew word used in the Jewish Scriptures (a.k.a. the Old Testament). The word means "nation," and is always used within these scriptures to refer to the nations of the world. Significantly, within the Old Testament, Judah (the Jewish nation) itself is called a "goy."
2. In the Old Testament, the Jews were called to be a nation separate from the other nations, which were all Pagan. And so, colloquially, all non-Jewish nations came to be called "goyim" as in "the nations" from which the God of the Old Testament had called upon the Jews to separate themselves.
3. A word used by some Jews to refer to the things of the Gentiles (non-Jews), whether ideas or cultural manifestations, etc. The word can have derogatory connotations, such as the word "black" when used to refer to a persons of African descent. It can be neutral or negative depending on the context and the intent of the speaker.

Noun: goy
Pl. Noun: goyim
Adjective: goyish or, less commonly, goyisch

1. "Gather together, gather together, O shameful goy" - Zephaniah 2:1 (Referring to the Jewish nation)
2. Honey-baked ham is a goyish food; have some gefilte fish instead.

Goysher 

A 100% Kosher Diet, but for the Goyim or in the case of the individual; Goy/Gentile.

Usually a Kosher diet is one that is outlined for the Chosenites; Kosher foods are those that conform to the Jewish dietary regulations of kashrut (dietary law), primarily derived from Leviticus and Deuteronomy.

The Goyim should adhere to this diet to ensure good health and fitness. The Jew wont cause detriment to themselves, so why would you?

Bro, dude Kyle, almost every grocery store you shop at is Kosher approved, you should totally be on the Goysher diet too!
