Manischewitz has been around a very long time, and even if you are not Jewish, you probably have a favorite Kosher food made by this renowned, Jersey located company.
Today, tomorrow and Sunday, the Manischewitz company is holding a
unique and very modern event at Chelsea Market: "The Manischewitz Experience".
As a reporter, I attended on Thursday night, and let me tell you: you have not lived until you dip their very cool macaroons into the chocolate fountain. It was just divine. I also got a kick out the pizza: made from Matzo and cooked with tomatoes and fresh mozzarella.
The public is invited to visit, and enjoy some very hip cool new foods, including Non-GMO (verified) and also Gluten-free foods, all part of their new line.
