Therefore- joints OK, pot brownies (gebrokts or non)- not ok. A question I'd always wondered about for those who peel all their veggies- how do you use romaine lettuce for Maror?

All I have to say is, you better eat your words about home-cooked non-gebrokts. My wife's cooking rocks, with or without the matzo meal. (Of course, my wife is also a professional chef, so it's not exactly your typical home-cooked stuff anyway. But still.) Anyway, we have one of the weirder minhagim around. Non-gebrokts the first two days, then gebrokts for the rest of Pesach. No idea why, but my mom and dad BOTH had that minhag in their families, so it's obviously out there. BTW, we did the bit with the costumes and the animal noises and the kids throwing plagues at Abba (that would be me). My wife even bought me a black-and-gold-striped Pharaoh torc (I think that's what the weird-looking head-thing is called), and a good time was had by all.

It's one of the minim listed and it fits the requirements - it's a vegetable (as opposed to horseradish, which is a root), and it's got a bitter taste (as opposed to horseradish, which is sharp). Apparently, lettuce in Europe was bug-infested, and they had no options, and that's when horseradish came into play... Re horseradish vs. romaine lettuce – romaine lettuce is preferable.

Menashe if you wanted to tell snags who the Alter Rebbe was- the last thing I would say is the Shulchan Aruch Harav- its so obscure. I would say the author of the Tanya.
