Instructions: The following is from the Chicago Rabbinical Council guide to Passover in the Jewish Home. I hope that this will enlighten some. BTW, I realize that there will be some things that surprise, the CRC has both Askenazic and Spehardic Rabbis but I believe that it is mostly Ashkenazic.

The Chicago Rabbinical Council is composed of Rabbis from around the country, so dont worry that some of this stuff is only for Chicago Jews. I have tried to be as generic as possible, I do however have the list of products and stores in Chicago that are approved.

Chametz: Any product that has the following - wheat, barley, oats, spelt. Luguemes (Kitniyot -beans, corn, peas, rice, alfalfa sprouts, bean sprouts, green beans, etc), mustard, and derivatives including oils. Sephardic Jews do eat some Kitniyot on Pesach.
