HAND SANITIZER- If possible purchase before Passover. Can purchase on Passover 2020 due to sakana (Star-K)
From the cRc: Do alcohol-based hand sanitizers require Pesach certification? Alcohol-based hand sanitizers such as Purell, typically contain at least 62% ethyl alcohol, which may possibly be chametz. However, Rav Schwartz ZT”L checked a sample of hand sanitizer and said that it is as inedible as other liquid soaps and may therefore be used on Pesach regardless of the source of alcohol.
May I use hand sanitizer on Shabbos and Yom To? Rav Schwartz ZT”L said that using a hand sanitizer such as Purell on Shabbos and Yom Tov is no different than using liquid soap; Iggeros Moshe (OC 1:113) holds that this is not permissible, but many Poskim are of the opinion that it is permitted. Rav Schwartz ZT”L accepts this latter approach. (cRc)

MILK & MILK SUBSTITUTES

Meat: raw fresh or frozen (not ground) Acceptable without Passover Certification if in original packaging. If not certified for Passover, meat should be rinsed before use. (cRc 2023)
From the Star-K: All packaged raw meat products should be used with reliable certifying agency Passover approval. If Passover-approved raw meat is not available, or the meat was already purchased without Passover approval, then it should be washed, ideally before Pesach . This should not be done over a Pesach sink. (However, all ground meat products require KFP certification and may not be used on Pesach without KFP certification, even if washed).
