entertainment, including live music and Israeli dancing, an
Israeli/Judaic art marketplace and more. There will be booths set up by
various San Diego Jewish organizations, schools and synagogues. And we will

May 28 - we are participating in the
annual ethnic food festival in Balboa Park
The
Israel Day Lawn
Program
was a huge success!
Here are the results of the Matzoh
Challenge
Our not so scientific study
produced some interesting results. 110 people taste-tested the Matzoh,
although not all testers voted on all 5 flavors.
The table below shows the results. The higher the number, the better people
liked it. From most liked to least, here is the order:
 |
-
1.
Grape
2. Egg
3. Regular
4. Whole Wheat

Overall we conclude that most
people like matzoh and are open to experiment with new flavors. It is important
to note that due to technical issues, (i.e. melting
 ) there was no chocolate matzoh in
the challenge. We suspect, if we'd been able to test chocolate matzoh, it would
have wound up on top.
Thank you to all who
participated.
A happy Passover celebration to all.
