Don’t Have Your Head in the Food

Sefer Siach Zekeinim quotes Rav Yosef Shteichel zt”l, one of the elder chasidim of Belz, as saying that he heard that in Belz that the Sar Shalom zy”a once was sitting at the Seder and saw that the following words were printed in Yiddish in the Haggadah before Mah Nishtana: “Mir rikt avek dem shissel un mir fregt Mah Nishtana.” (The ke’arah is removed and Mah Nishtana is recited.)

The Rebbe declared, “Of course! Of course! If one is able to remove himself from his bowl of food (if one can put aside his eating), he will know how this night is different.”
