It took about 10 minutes for me to read this passage. Toward the end of chapter 11 God lays down the standard he expects of his people; holiness. I think there is a tendancy among Christians to over spiritualize the term holiness. I think that God's idea is for his people to be motivated by spiritual desires, not the desires of the flesh. With this command following after God's specification of clean and unclean food I think God's point is even clearer; don't be indescrimenate by eating the food that other people eat. God expects his people to follow his guideline in every area of life.
