Host: Finally, our ancestors combined the matzah, bitter herb, and sweet Charoset into a Hillel sandwich.

We take a piece of matzoh, put some horseradish on it, and then the sweet charoset on top. Together, the taste is bittersweet reminding us how the Passover story is bitter in remembering our ancestors’ suffering, but sweet remembering our liberation from that suffering.
