Let’s face it: matzo sucks.
It’s dry. It’s flavorless. It’s often served stale. It pales in comparison to garlic za’atar challah.
But alas, for 8 days a year, we Jews must suffer through meals devoid of bread, pasta and buttery and flakey croissants.
Clearly, Forward readers aren’t happy about it — a full 56 percent of our polled readers confirm the obvious: Matzo is the bread of affliction.
How do you feel about matzo?

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we need 500 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
