Rokeach Gives Statistics
Hints, for This Pesach
I. Rokeach & Sons, one of the
largest food makers of Kosher
products, estimates that U.S.
Jews will consume during the
Passover period:
More than 12,000,000 pounds
of matzos, stretching approxi-
mately 21,000 miles if laid end
to end; some 210,000 gallons of
borscht enough to fill 3,400,000
soup plates; enought gefulte
fish to serve every man, woman
and child in Switzerland.
This year, the holiday, based
on the lunar and solar calen-
dars, falls on the Sabbath.
According to t h e orthodox
Hebrew religion, the Sabbath
forbidS all work, including the
preparation of food.
To overcome t h e calendar
prOblem, Rokeach suggests that
housewives prepare the • seder
meal Friday morning and place
in refrigerator with packaged
Pesach food items. The basic
staples can later be prepared in
less than 20 minutes, while a
chicken is reheated, without a
deviation from religious require-
ments.
