Afikoman
Afikoman (Hebrew language: ×פיקומן, based on Greek, epikomen or epikomion, meaning "that which comes after" or "dessert") is a piece of matzo which is hidden at the start of the Passover Seder and is eaten at the end of the festive meal. After the afikoman is eaten, one may not consume any other food for the rest of the night, aside from the Third and Fourth Cups of Wine and beverages such as water or tea.
