Alot of people (me included) eat only hand matzos because that is our mesoirah and minhag. Pesach has that special flavor of eating only what your parents did even if it has no ryme or reason. Like alot of Hungarian descent yidden who eat only “falsche fish” aka chicken balls and not real fish because in the shtetle they put something soaked in chometz in the dead fish mouth to keep it fresh.
Some only use 3 to 4 spices…the one the Bubbes had in Europe.
Some only eat 3 or 4 types of vegetables and peel their grapes before eating it.
Or not “mishing” even by someone who you would trust 100% the whole year.
The list goes on and on……Its just the flavor of Pesach alot of us grew up on. Without that it just wouldn”t be Pesach.
Who besides me misses the walnut crackers?
