Manischewitz

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

Manischewitz is a U.S. based food company that produces kosher products and is best known for its matzo and kosher wine. The company was founded by Rabbi Dov Behr Manischewitz in 1888 in Cincinnati, Ohio, and has been a popular brand in the kosher market for over a century.

History[edit | edit source]

Rabbi Dov Behr Manischewitz started the company in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1888. The company was originally known for its matzo production. The matzo was made by hand until 1920 when the company started using machines, making Manischewitz the first company to mass-produce machine-made matzo.

In the 1930s, the company expanded its product line to include other kosher foods, such as soups and noodles. In 1940, Manischewitz further expanded by introducing kosher wine, which has since become one of its most popular products.

Products[edit | edit source]

Manischewitz produces a wide range of kosher products. These include matzo, kosher wine, soup mixes, broths, Passover products, and other kosher foods. The company's products are made in accordance with Jewish dietary laws and are certified kosher by the Orthodox Union.

Matzo[edit | edit source]

Manischewitz is perhaps best known for its matzo, a type of unleavened bread traditionally eaten during Passover. The company produces a variety of matzo products, including matzo meal, matzo ball mix, and matzo crackers.

Kosher Wine[edit | edit source]

Manischewitz's kosher wine is another popular product. The company produces a variety of wines, including Concord Grape and Blackberry. These wines are sweet and are often used for religious ceremonies.
