Question

A. One who is stringent not to eat shruya (matsa that has come into contact with water, “gebrochts”) on Pesach – may he eat a non-shruya food that was cooked in a pot or pan in which shruya dishes were previously cooked (on Pesach)?
B. Do mineral waters require special Pesach certification?

Answer

Shalom u’vracha.

A. Eating shruya (matsa that has become wet) is not a halachic prohibition but a custom, and therefore it depends on each person’s individual custom.

B. For natural water there is no need. Water with added minerals (for example, Aqua Nova), or with added fluoride, requires reliable kashrut supervision.
