And there is Machine shmura. I only use hand matzos that I produce myself, about two kilo, and supplement with machine shmura. On the EY scene, 2.5 kilo ( a five pound long box) went for 79, 89, 99 shekel in the last three years, compared to 120/kg and up for the hand matzo. Its too late for me to do the math, but machine is much less, easier on old brittle teeth, and often just as tasty. And to some shittos, a hiddur.
