I was doing some thinking last night about what bread-stuffs, other
than matzo, might be Kosher for Pesach. Specifically, I was
curious about some of the non-levened breadstuffs of other
countries.  [Note: Throughout this discussion, if you are not Reform, 
insert "under proper rabbinic supervision" where necessary]

Consider the following foods:
	Flour Tortillas (usually just flour+water+a little lime)
	Corn Tortillas (corn+water+lime)
	Chapti (indian -- I believe whole wheat flour + water)

These foods are all cooked in a simpler manner than matzo,
namely, put the mix on a griddle and fry. Note that the intent of
this is not to replace matzo, but to get a little variety during
the week. After all, no one around today knows for sure how the
cooks among our people actually cooked the (mixture), only that
they left fast enough that it couldn't be left to rise.

Daniel.

It is easier to change the specification to fit the program than
vice-versa.              -- A. J. Perlis, SIGPLAN 17:9 Sept 1982
