Is there Kosher for Passover peanut butter?

Can you have nuts, peanut butter, almond butter, jelly/jam, and dairy products over passover?

  • that's basically it, just wondering what I'm going to have for meals for the rest of passover

  • Answer:

    Nuts, almond butter, jelly/jam, and dairy products are fine during Passover so long as they have a kosher for Passover hechsher. The exception being milk, it doesn't require a hechsher if you buy it prior to the start of Passover and do not open it until after Passover starts. Peanut butter also requires a kosher for Passover hechsher. However, because peanuts are classified as kitniyot, they are not eaten by Ashkenazim and it's not possible to find a brand that has a Passover hechsher in North America.

Basic rule -- any processed product needs to say "Kosher for Passover" on the jar to assure that there is nothing in it made from wheat derivatives. The basic forbidden product is anything manufactured from "the five grains" (wheat, barley, spelt, oats ...and I always forget the fifth) unless it is manufactured in a very specific manner into Matza. A secondary concern is "Kitniot" - corn, rice, and a number of other products which transform in similar manner to the "five grains" (note - American rice is sprayed with something that is made of "the five grains" - so it is one of the primary forbidden products) --------------- To your question: Some nuts and peanuts might be forbidden as Kitniot if you come from European Jewish origins. I don't know - because my origin community did not forbid Kitniot. Jam is made of Fruit -- so there are no inherent Passover concerns (except, as I said - in a processed product today there may be all sorts of chemicals from all sorts of unexpected sources) Dairy is too generic a category to say anything useful. Milk and Eggs have no inherent Passover Passover concerns (except, as I said - in a processed product today there may be all sorts of chemicals from all sorts of unexpected sources)

Tree nuts are kosher for Passover peanuts are legumes and are NOT kosher for Passover almond butter made without corn syrup is made from tree nuts and would be KFP Jelly/jam made without corn syrup/corn starch would be KFP Dairy is KFP

nuts, Most, yes. peanut butter No. almond butter yes, assuming it's pure. jelly/jam Yes, if it has no corn syrup or other chametz/kitniyot in it. dairy products Yes, again, assuming it hasn't touched any chametz/kitniyot. Many people, depending on how strictly they keep these things, will not worry too much about kitniyot, or if a grain of flour might possibly have touched their passover foods. Others are very strict, and always look for the codes on the packaging, to be sure that the facility was inspected.
