Question
Hello, Does toothpaste need to be kosher for Passover?
Answer
Hello and happy holiday!
It is advisable to use kosher toothpaste for Passover because it contains flavoring agents.
However, if you cannot find kosher toothpaste, it is permissible according to the basic law to use non-kosher toothpaste, as it is not intended for consumption, and the flavor is only to facilitate brushing.
