A few weeks ago, when I saw the press release for Osem’s Kosher For
Pesach Flat Pretzels I was skeptical about them but I knew, without a shadow of
a doubt, that I wanted to try them. I also wanted to send a bag to my friend in
the USA. Although she does not eat Kitniyot on Pesach I was sure she would
enjoy trying them. Plus I always appreciate her take on new products and I like to have more than one opinion if I write a review.
There are other snacks like Bissli, Apropo, potato chips, popcorn etc that have a Kosher for Pesach option and have been available here in past years as well as this year. But as I’ve mentioned many times, in past blog posts, pretzels are my “go-to” favorite salty snacks. I don’t love the fried/oily snacks as much as the baked pretzel-style snacks. Having a good pretzel option for Pesach would be wonderful for me. That’s if it tasted decent in my opinion, i.e. not like Matzo or potato starch. I’ve also mentioned in the past that I dislike the taste and texture of potato starch. As far as Matzo, if it tastes like Matzo I may as well just eat Matzo. When I saw that it was made mainly of corn flour, rice flour and soy flour I was optimistic and thought it may have potential.
