The United States is facing a matzah shortage.
Shoppers from coast to coast are having difficulty finding matzah on store shelves, The New York Times reported.
The shortage is the result of production difficulties at the Manischewitz plant in New Jersey, as well as the decision by some store chains, such as Trader Joe’s and Costco, not to carry matzah this year, the Times reported.
