Ashkenazi Jews (I just realized, that word has nazi in it), Jews from Europe, do not consume legumes (plants with kernels) during Passover, but Sephardi Jews (Middle Eastern) do.

Before Passover observant Jews clean out all their cupboards to the bare walls, and give away or burn all their not safe for Passover food. They scrub down and cover their kitchen counters, and take out all their dishes and cookware replace them with their Passover dishes. My ex-sister-in-law had two sets of good china, and they also use paper plates a lot. The real Orthodox take it even more steps further. It's a major deal.

We have some friends who have two seperate kitchens in order to keep as Kosher as possible at all times.

I did not know anything about it... this is interesting...

Kosher Coca Cola produced for Passover is sold in 2-liter bottles with a yellow cap marked with an OU-P, indicating that the Orthodox Jewish Union certifies the soda as Kosher for Passover, or with a white cap with a CRC-P indicating that the certification is provided by the Chicago Rabbinical Council.

While the usual Coca-Cola formula is kosher (the original glycerin from beef tallow having been replaced by vegetable glycerin), during Passover Ashkenazi Jews do not consume Kitniyot, which prevents them from consuming high fructose corn syrup (HFCS).

Even sugar-based formulas would still require certification of both the formula and the specific bottling plant, as the strictures of Kashrut on Passover are far higher and more complicated than usual kosher observance.
