This is the bib- lical directive instructing us that during the week of Passover no bread is to be eaten. The reason for this is easy to understand. As is stated in the Haggadah, "The dough of our forefathers did not have sufficient time to raise ... for they were driven from Egypt and could not linger." That explains the matzah. But, as any Passover food shopper knows, there is much more to Passover foods than matzah. Indeed, even in all of its many forms. — as matzah farfel, matzah meal, matzah crackers, matzah balls — matzah is not the primary filler of supermarket shelf space. That is because in re- cent years many other food items have become part of the contem- porary passover tradition. Let's start with the holiday's No. 1 non-matzah food item: Passover candy. It's everywhere. You can't avoid it, even if you try. In college I had a friend who — convinced that the Israelites fled Egypt without fruit gels or caramel cashew clusters — was determined that she was like- wise going to survive the week without candy. It was impossi- ble. She broke down less than four hours into the holiday as the second box of assorted chocolates was being passed around the seder table. Of course, passover candy is nothing new. I remember, as a young child in the 1960s, accom- panying my mother when she did the Passover shopping. At that time the Jewish community of my city was well along its way of moving out to the suburbs; and, as a result, there was but a small remnant of Jewish storekeepers in what was once a bustling neighborhood of Jewish com- merce. Every year before Passover my mother made sure that we visit- ed each of the Jewish grocery stores that still remained, so that we could help them, in our small way, by giving them our Passover business. I remember anticipat- ing our annual trip with a mix- ture of melancholy and excitement. The sadness came from seeing the poor Jewish storekeepers struggling to hold on to their anachronistic busi- nesses. The source of excitement was knowing that in these old- fashioned grocery stores there Arnold R. Clock is a lawyer, free- lance writer, and cartoosist in Brookline, Mass.
