Re: Matzah restriction—interestingly I’ve only read this on the box, but I don’t think everyone subscribes to this 🤷‍♀️
I hope matzobrei is allowed :/

Tangentially related article about ‘kitniyot’ and recent move by one denomination to allow a wider interpretation of what Ashkenazi (European descent) Jews may eat on Passover. Talk amongst yourselves!

This early? I would think any good baked goods would need to be made closer to the holiday?

MP (Matzoh Poster): we’ve always eaten it (people of any age & I grew up conservative), but I just found some at a Target so thank you for listening!

I almost wondered if this was related to the egg shortage? But I'm thinking it's that whoever orders for these stores clearly has not done 8 days of no bread in their life.


If you are observant, you are not supposed to eat egg matzoh - that's only for the infirm or the children. So, maybe whoever orders it for the store thinks that there will be a very limited market for Passover? It's fine to eat otherwise.


Nevver heard of this restriction before. Is Matza Brei frowned on too?
