Corn+flakes'
Not Kosher for Passover
**Not kosher for Passover.** Corn flakes contain corn (a kitniyot grain), which Ashkenazi Jews (and many others following stricter customs) prohibit during Passover to avoid any risk of chametz (leavened grains). Even plain corn flakes without additives aren't certified kosher for Passover, as they fail standard Passover kashrut guidelines from bodies like the OU or Star-K. Rice-based or quinoa alternatives might be used instead by some.
