matza

Relationship: Im/migrant

The Matza was a major factor in the Hebrew culture and we eat it on passover. During passover you’re not allowed to eat bread because thousands of years ago Jewish people were slaves. They worked themselves to death. Because of the plagues that g-d sent, the pharaoh got scared and let the Jews go. They hurried out of the area as fast as they could. While they were running they were hungry. They wanted to make bread but decided not to because it takes to long to make so they made matza it's like bread just quicker to make. the wavy matza is delicious. Matza means so much to me because from all the years of suffering we are now free. Jews now enjoy this food over passover. My family immigrated early 2000s we came from israel and morocco.We came to america with matza it reminds my family of Israel. Matza is delicious especially with nutella if it wasn't for matza I wouldn't be a Jew.
