\"\"Even if you don’t practice a Kosher diet, you’ve probably heard of Kosher before. But what does Kosher mean? Kosher is a specific type of product that Jewish people are okay to eat. These products are specifically important during Jewish holidays such as Hanukkah and Passover.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Passover celebrates the Jewish people’s liberation from slavery during early Egyptian times. In Hebrew, it’s spelled as Pesah, and in Judaism, Pesach.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This year, Passover starts on April.16 and ends on April.23. During the first night, families will gather together for a large feast called the seder. And sometimes, it is referred to as the Festival of Unleavened Bread.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A seder is a plate of traditional Jewish foods, including matzo ball soup, gefilte fish, brisket, roast chicken, potato kugel, and tzimmes, which is like a vegetable stew\u2014consisting of carrots, prunes, and sometimes sweet potatoes or regular potatoes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Passover is a time for rejoicing and celebrating, and it’s during this time when Kosher foods are essential.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The word “kosher” actually comes from a Hebrew word meaning “fit,” so any food product labeled “kosher” is okay for them to consume. Examples of kosher products are milk, beef, chicken, salmon, and tuna.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Some other terms kosher terms include:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kosher-pareve:\u00a0These products are made without any meat, milk, or derivatives. Our pareve products include dark chocolate, mints, espresso beans, and rum cordials.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Glatt:\u00a0The term glatt refers to anything with meat in it. Our chocolates do not contain any meat.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If chocolate isn’t your thing, we have other sweet Kosher treats such as assorted fruit, licorice bites, and Twizzlers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Most people who practice a Kosher diet require the food products to be labeled Kosher certified before consuming them. While others only need to know if they’re made with Kosher ingredients.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For Passover, we have many treats for you to enjoy. They include chocolate bars, Matzoh, chocolate, fruit and nut platters, chocolate-covered macaroons, Passover frogs, Passover Sedar plate, Jelly Fruit slices, etc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Not all of our Kosher products are certified, so if that’s a concern. It’s a good idea to read the labels before purchasing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At Lazar’s, we want to wish all a Happy Passover to all our celebrating customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
