Subject: [Avodah] Popcorn et al on Pesach
InAvodah Digest, Vol 42, Issue 26 Rabbi Meir G. Rabi explained about
kitniyot and tavshil.
Here in Israel, a well known Dati-Leumi Rav Rabbi Levanon paskened that a
particular brand of rice cakes may be eaten by Ashkenzim on Pesach because
he examined the factory in which they are made and a no point does water
come in contact with the rice. See

This assumes the minhag is to treat qitniyos like one of the five grains,
and not like a pre-dough mixture.
R Melameid is meiqil (9:6) but he does note that there are machmirim.
Those who are meiqil also include Shulchan Arukh haRav 453:5, and the
Chayei Adam (127:1). However, the Sho'el uMeishiv 1:1:175 and Maamar
Mordechai (#32) are machmir. They argue that since we aren't talking
about things that actually become chameitz, whether or not they are wet,
nevermind wet long enough for a grain to become chameitz, is irrelevant.
(Then the footnote continues to discuss a macholqes rishonim about
whether scalding would works for qitniyos, if we still knew how to do
it. See the SA OC 454:3.)
