Show me where and how there could have been white flour in the pantries of Jews escaping out of Egypt thousands of years ago. Go on, quickly.

What's wrong with the packaged matzas from reliable companies that are sold in supermarkets and grocery stores all over Israel?

They quickly ran out to the fields, they chopped down wheat, brought it back to their little stone walled homes, picked out the bugs, cleaned it, then they ground the grains between two heavy rocks - then they got an SMS that Pharos’s men were having a change of heart - so Moses speeded up the action - he got everyone involved in the effort. Then he said sod it, we don’t have enough time to let it rise, bummer – we’ll have to haul ass out of here with flat bread. And that is how it happened.

Shabbat starts on Friday. Can't help but think it's divine intervention. Maybe it's a sign from God saying enough with the matzah eating, you've proved your point.

nothing mentioned in the bible about the unleavened bread being corrugated. in the biblical time there was no method of corrugation.

I mean, who else makes matza? So that would mean one of us is cheating others of us -- say it isn't so, Joe!!!!

Just like you have Nike rip-offs and other infringements of registered patents out there, thought by some to be a money making spin, someone had the same idea about making matzah for pessach. Do you understand now, Sweetheart?

Actually, I like your version a lot better than the original one.

are fakes . Those making them should be severely punished . I don't think that serious supermarkets sell those matsoth with a fake Kashrut stamp . But attention if you see "cheap" packages , from unknown factories at small shops or markets . And , Dorothy , Yes those fakes are most certainly made by Jews . Reshet Beth talked about such a factory in Beer Tuvia [ i think it was there , not sure ]

and so after the two sedars I dont eat it and usually drop 6 lbs over the holiday. Do you know what true punishment is? Being forced to eat matzah for 8 days and not having prune juice at the ready. Come to think of it prune juice is more expensive than blueberry juice.

What if I go and buy a packet of fake matzah? what will happen to me? Will I turn to stone? will I be turned away and shunned by God, struck down? I'm frantic now with worry..............................NOT! Those religious ones are always looking for a bargain, they'd better be extra vigilant . Imagine the riots if one of them accidentally munches on a faux matzah. You gotta love this country!!!!!!!

How did they trace the fakes to the warehouse?

I did not realize the grain itself, had to be kosher. I thought that it was the process of making grain into matzah, that needed to be monitored under Rabbinic supervision.

Chickens are fed kosher feed months ahead of time to assure the eggs are kosher! If there is money in it for the kasruth inspectors, you can be sure that they will find a way to make it kosher for Passover!

If I was staying in Israel for Pesach then I would have only one sedar but since I will visiting my parents in Canada then there will be two sedars. The 2 sedars will be the only time that I eat matzah.

I would be sympathetic, but so many religious businessmen have no problem cheating in other areas of life and cheating other people. So, it's almost like giving God lip-service. I would think that being religious and authentic isn't enough. I think God expects goodness to stretch into all areas of life.

once they are gone..its bitter Happy Passover kid.

next thing you know, there is made in Korea matzah. What else is next?

up to 3x of normal daily consumption. Don't be a statistic.

Such a pity that politics control the lives of Israelis. A bakery in the south sells matza !!!Will not pay the rabbinout extortion CALL THE MATZA NON KOSHER This is the only matza i wiil buy. Where is the finance ministry who looses taxes from closing another factory??. Where is the ministry of labour ??How many jobs were lost to this kosher lie.???

this article fails to cover the basics of "who, when, where, and why". and it's not just the "orthodox" who care about being ripped off, and about matzah that isn't really matzah.

Put the factory making them stamp every Matza as genuine. Nice laugh!!

Those poor Hebrews way back when didn't have a certificate either. ooohh nooo! When will we stop making a dog and pony show out of baking bread before it leavens. This coming from Rabbis who tell people to eat reclined as free men in contradiction to G-d's specific instructions to remeber the hurried meal that was prepaired before bread could leaven by sitting with shoes on your feet, loins girded and walking staff in hand. The first fast food. Farce and friars. Pay someone to certify mucking up pesach? Is it showing leavening? No. Then its kosher matzah.

...and you wonder if the Matzah that is clealy unleavened is kosher certified according to made up law that violate Devarim 4:2?. Maybe a reading of Torah is in order because someone missed the curses for recognizing another man created to a "g-d" before the true G-d. So an enternal heaven dwelling prophet who encouraged pagans to build an alter and rather than tearing it down as the law states. This Pesach centepiece libation of wine for a man g-d is the very one who "fixed" a pagan alter and sacraficed to G-d on this pagan alter? This man worthy of attention on this sacred holiday as "kosher approved"? ... but a cracker passed for unleavened bread needs a bought and paid for with a rabbinic certificate? I get it. Choose life and choose death.

In American supermarkets, every year I see Matzah that is openly marked as being NOT Kosher for Passover. Does anyone know who eats that stuff and why? I've always been curious.

I think they should check for fake rabbis, like ones who build fake ERs in parking lots far from the hospital, or those who check for kashrut with a check. Money, money, money, that's what it's all about.

Now they must get the rabbanut certificate to be Kosher for Passover. I'm curious to know whow it works. Do they compare them, do they stamp the matza or do they blackmail the factory to get their dues. By the way, I'm selling fake matzot on ebay along with Vuitton bags and Rolex watches...Any bids?

Sometimes you just have to have one of those dry tasteless crackers to munch on or to use in e recipe. So when it is not pesach, You can buy a cracker matzah to use in your cooking without paying a ridiculous price.
