As we enter the Pesach season, KVH reminds consumers to verify the Pesach status of each item they purchase.
- When purchasing items at non-certified supermarkets such as Stop & Shop,
Star Market, Shaw’s, Wegman’s etc., Kitniyos and Matzah Ashira products are
often mixed in with other Pesach products and are not identified as such. - At certified stores, such as The Butcherie (Brookline, MA) & Zayde’s Market
(Sharon, MA), there is a period of time while the store is organized where one
may find Chametz and Pesach products on the shelves. - Even after the stores are certified for Pesach and Kitniyos sections are
marked, there may be items that are inadvertently mixed up.
