Has anyone gotten a Pesach package from Masbia? Whatis in it? (In case it varies by location I am interested in Flatbush)
I am scheduled to get one this week but want to go shopping to fill in what I will need and don't want to buy double/extra.

That's why I'm trying to find out what's in it.
I can't wait to shop. It'll be too difficult by then.

What we got

A lot of chicken
Some chicken cutlets
Chopped meat
1 box mazah
Huge amount of cucumbers and carrots
Box of apples
Case of grape juice
Lebens (box of 12)
Assorted flavors and company yougurts (not sure how many - maybe 15 -20)
Few packs of cheeses
Butter - stick and container
Cottage cheese
2 cases of eggs (30 dozens)
2 bags sugar
1 salt

Think I got it all but will post if I remember anything else....
Keep on mind that they could change what they give based on supplies so you may get a little different

I got onions and potatoes (Harvest Gold potatoes, not Idaho, if that makes a difference). Also lotsa random vegetables like beets, turnips, parsnip, also ginger (I think) and some mysterious unknown vegetable that I haven't quite figured out. Everything else was basically the same as the above poster mentioned
Also 15 dozen eggs - not sure if that was mentioned

Thanks for the reminder - sorry op - I forget about that - we got that as well (I'm the first one who posted a list above). We got 2 bags of sugar and one salt. I edited my above list to include those

No disrespect intended, but what does one do with 30 dozen eggs? Where does one keep 30 dozen eggs? I am happy you got the food, just perplexed about so many eggs. In my chesbon, I figured 1 dozen eggs per person for the week.

One brownie cake in a 9 by 13 pan is 8 eggs alone. Pesach food is a lot of eggs and a lot of separated eggs- homemade ice cream and cakes etc. keep in garage or porch
