11 Major Passover Food Fails
These mistakes are worse than the plagues. Maybe.
1. Doing this to a perfectly good matzoh ball:
There’s a place for bacon. It’s not here.
8. Putting together a seder plate this way:
It’s the thought that counts, but where is the shank bone and why is there a cactus?
10. Organizing the shelves at Whole Food like so:
They’re clearly not up on their Chametz rules.
11. Having a cheeseburger for Passover lunch:
At least they’re using Matzoh instead of bread?

Emily Orley, I appreciate that you bring the Jew-riffic posts to BuzzFeed. But this makes two of your articles that fail to realize that not everyone keeps kosher in the same way. There are lots of people who would happily eat pepperoni and cheese on their matzah. It might not fit your rules, but that doesn’t make it a “fail”.

Well seeing as in her other article (http://www.buzzfeed.com/emilyorley/most-annoying-things-about-keeping-kosher) she eats unkosher meat (at non-kosher restaurants) but complains about having to ask for no cheese on her burger, Emily doesn’t follow the exact rules of kashrut either. It’s getting a bit frustrating that these lists are being proclaimed as universal problems without acknowledging that not everyone does everything the same way.

PROHIBITED FOODS
Leavened bread, cakes, biscuits, crackers, cereals, coffee ‘‘blends’’, wheat, barley, oats, rice, dry peas, dry beans, and all liquids which contain ingredients or flavors made from grain alcohol or vinegar (other than cider vinegar). That would imply that whole wheat flour is probably not Passover-friendly. -

Wheat, rye, barley, oats, and spelt can’t be consumed during Passover. That would imply that whole wheat flour may not be Passover-friendly (it technically is, but I imagine some people don’t consider it to be, because wheat isn’t). And I still don’t see how it would be “big time fail” even if it was, because that still leaves a bunch of meat/dairy, pork, leavening, and shellfish things that are most definitely not kosher (and the cereal was listed as “gross,” not un-kosher—plus, some people avoid any kosher versions of typically non-kosher foods, such as cereal). As for the breaded stuff, that seems like one of the things that you could raise debate about. You can use flour, bread crumbs, egg, and/or milk to bread things. Eggs are pareve, milk is dairy, flour may or may not be kosher, and you could argue either way about bread crumbs (since they’re likely made from leavened bread). Breaded meat is probably out, unless you make it yourself or know they don’t use milk, but none of those things are meat. Green beans are kitniyot, though, and thus not Passover-friendly to strict Ashkenazi Jews, breaded or otherwise.

Quite a few “breaded” things are breaded with cornmeal. Not sure where maize falls in kosherness.
