Matzo: it's not just for religious rites anymore. I've got a very lax Jewish roomate who eats the stuff as a snack around passover like people eat candy canes at Christmas... just because it's the season for it. (Otherwise, she pretty much ignores the holiday.) Also, even if it's not the seder, they're not supposed to eat leavened food during the whole festival of passover... like Catholics and meat on Friday in Lent. My SO, who doesn't keep remotely Kosher any other time of year will not eat anything leavened during Passover. This includes bread, pizza, pasta, cookies, doughnuts and anything made with any of the above (like Shake n' Bake). He's not sure about popcorn (it expanded,) so he doesn't eat it. For people like him it won't matter if Sodexo keeps a Kosher kitchen, so long as there something unleavened to eat, and Matzo definitely fits the bill.

I went to brunch for Easter with my family, and my poor SO who had to ignore the loffly pankakes and waffles because it was still passover. There was a table that had Matzo and Lox tho... with capers, so he had that and scrambled eggs and stuff, and discovered from the chef that that the blintzes were made with potato starch and thus safe for Passover.

On Saturday I cooked Latkes and now look like I have the chickenpox on my arms from the cooking oil, because I'm a disaster at Latkes, and my roomate made Matzo Ball Soup and we (me, her, my SO, her SO) all sat around watching TV. I wanted to make the boys do the dishes... but she said no.

I hope everyone else had a likewise pleasant weekend!

Popcorn: When cooked. tremendous pressure builds up inside of the kernal from the water turning into steam and the inside material liquifies from the heat. Eventually, the pressure gets so high that the kernal explodes sending the molten centers out into the cooler air where it quickly cools and sets into the shape we all know.

Yes, I do know my share of food trivia.

They sold those. Quite yummy- it tasted like a crunch bar, as I recall.

Matzos are delish. I eat them all year. Is that blasphemy or something?

So do we. :p: Trouble is, he's not sure if that counts as leavening or not.

I don't think so, unless you could steam as leavening because that is what causes it.

hehehehhee

Of course... When I was a child and Chanukah was before Christmas It took the edge off waiting for Christmas...When Chanukah was around Christmas that was nice, and when Christmas was First,and Chanukah was after that also helped ease into the New Year... Just depends on when Chanukah is in December... Now I just do Christmas at home with my hubby, and at least One day of Chanukah with my daughter, who does more of the Chanukah thing with my inlaws...
