  1. I find it very said Passover is only one week and people can’t live without French fries, pizza, etc. What is the world coming too when you can’t enjoy a Passover with the minimum of modern things and enjoy the true holiday.

  2. To #1. If HKB”H allows us to have “modern things”, why can’t we use them to enjoy the true holiday — especially when there is a mitzvas asai of simchas Yom Tov? While I, personally, very rarely eat pizza or french fries (on Pesach or any other time), I certainly cannot condemn anyone who wants to eat something that is perfectly mutar.

  3. Big deal. Price gouging will continue as usual. The gullible fools will just keep getting ripped off and think they are doing a great Mitzvah and will get paid back altz Hotzao’s Kavod Yom tov. What stupid fools they are. Its time to stand up and fight this Avaira chamura!

  4. I Totally agree with #1

    just give it 5 to 10 years & by then you will not be able to even feel the kedusha of pesach anymore.

    Don’t worry soon there will be ovens that can bake challa in less then 18 minutes.

  5. In response to no. 1- when you are celiac and limited in what you can eat, it’s very appreciated when all these new items come out, so please be considerate to others who really benefit from the gluten free products, and can also carry them over for the rest of the year.

  6. is it not beautiful! look how much reward people will receive after pesach for not having the real thing for a whole week. they love the mizvos of hashem so much!

  7. Abilenetx is right on the money. Money is the right word, because it’s profit that’s driving this. Can’t we get by with non-gourmet, non-fake chometz stuff for eight days? (I hope in EY, where it’s only a week, that they don’t have this problem.)

    Pesach is supposed to be different from the other 51 weeks of the year. What are we teaching our kids? That we can’t live without the luxuries even for a week? That we have to indulge our taivos even at the cost of confusing the kavanah of eliminating chometz?

    Let’s get real and get back to the ikkar!

    And if you don’t buy the junk, you’ll save a lot of money, something which almost all of us are worried about these days.

  8. I cant believe what a chillul Hashem you people AT MATZAV just did.

    you have just shown your corruption & dishonesty. by not posting my HONEST post above that was written almost 24 hours ago.

    SHAME ON YOU….

    hope hashem will ever forgive you for this chillul hashem you made.

  9. to #12

    over the past 24 hours (between my 2 posts)many people have read this newsletter but have not seen what people have to say about it. do YOU think they will ever come back to read it? Sorry but they read it already. WOULD YOU go back to read something you read already? the only time I ever go back is to see if my blog was posted.

    so the fact that you even wrote your post just shows that your mind thinks it can fool people & shows that you also have a dishonest & corrupt mind.

    May hashem help you remove this dishonesty & corruption from your life & do teshuva ASAP

  10. MATZAV please post the post I wrote 7 sent over 8 hours ago for the sake of honesty & integrity. this is your chance to show people (who will still read this newsletter-if any still) that at least you are working on teshuva with honesty & no corruption anymore.

    with this route of honesty only, I bentch you that hashem should grant you success in all your needs etc…
