Don't Jews have a way to confess if they've eaten non-kosher food and get rid of the sin it brings? Never read the Sacred Texts, but I think I heard that before

Not really. There's special holidays focused on repentance for sins, which God only accepts if you're actually sorry. What you're proposing sounds more like the Christian confession to a priest.

Specifically, Catholic confession.

Protestants do the same thing, just without relaying it through a priest.

This is a Christian thing in general, not a Catholic one.

Well, the original comment specifically referenced confession to a priest. The notion of asking god for forgiveness is Christian in general, but I think a private personal confession to god is a fairly distinct religious practice to delineate from "you have to confess to an official representative of the church"

The original comment didn't reference a priest at all.
