^ It shouldn’t come as a surprise that people complain of weight gain of Passover, a festival defined by the eating of unleavened bread, when a single matzah contains almost twice as many calories as a slice of plain white bread.

Each matzah contains 130 calories, which is only slightly less than two slices of regular white bread (which contain 70 calories each), according to dietitian Dr. Maya Rosman, who spoke to Channel 2 in an interview aired Saturday.

Whole-wheat matza is only slightly less fattening, containing 120 calories.
