Bishul Akum

Asked by Dovid · May 29, 2002 · Kashrut

Question

The Rabbi wrote in response to my last question: "Bishul Akum does not apply to packaged items that are manufactured and shipped." Why not?

Answer

Answered by Aaron Abadi

Why yes?! In order to get an answer to why not, you need to familiarize youself with the Halachot of Bishul Akum & the reason for the Issur. Once you do that, you won't ask, "why not?" AA
