In Israel, not only observant Jews eliminate chametz for Passover: The animals that provide them with milk, eggs, and meat must follow the bread-ban as well.

Tomorrow on Vox Tablet, we have a special dispatch from a dairy farm outside Jerusalem, where Ilan Reitich is very busy complying with these special holiday rules. According to Reitich, the gastro-intestinal discomfort humans may experience on a matzah-only diet is nothing compared to what the cows go through.
