Manischewitz Company, the New Jersey-based largest producer of kosher food in North America, is breaking tradition in its 129-year history by unveiling its first triangular matzah. Manischewitz says the shape is part of its "Matzo Pizza Kit." CEO David Sugarman said matzot pizza is a Passover staple for Jewish families because they are not permitted to eat foods made with yeast or leavening. The company needed a special die to make the new shape from the traditional rectangle. The company says breakage meant it had to replace a cooling conveyor with a new process. Employees now grab the matzo by hand and place it into cartons to cool. The company said it can produce about 1,500 matzah triangles every 15 minutes.
