Episode 48 - The Bizarre Story of Why Quinoa May Be Kosher L'pesach
Episode 48
Wednesday, 18 February, 2026

Another episode from Limmud 2025! This episode is a recording of a session presented by Asher Lovy at Limmud this past year. In this episode you'll learn the (possibly) real story of why the OU finally declared quinoa kosher for Pesach. The story starts with angry caterers desperate to provide kosher l'pesach sushi to the masses, lingers for a while on the horrific attempts by the late Torah Vodaas Rosh Yeshiva, Yisroel Belsky, to bully the victim of Yossi Kolko into dropping his case, and ends with a mysterious mission to investigate quinoa production in the Andes, and free Jacob Ostreicher from prison.
