TAAM????
Question
AA - We were all taught that taam is a problem at Subway, IHOP and any non kosher place. I hate to say it but you when you constantly demean us and criticize us as ignorant for asking about taam, you don't sound like much of a halchic authority. Why don't you create a section in the halacha area of your website that cites all the sources, and explains in detail why taam isn't a problem. I think this would be much better than your put downs. And it would make your rulings seem less cavalier. I, like many others, apparently, fail to see how you can possible rule that taam isn't a problem in non kosher places, and I'd love to see a detailed, comprehensive explanation.
Answer
Answered by Aaron AbadiBecause the source is at the only place it can be, which is the relevant Gemaras & Shulchan Aruch. If you feed me silly facts about laws that have no source and are totally untrue and dishonest, but someone told you, so you believe it. Now you want me to be responsible to refute what you heard?! How absurd?! Open up the books of laws to the pages that discuss the topic, and it's right there. Are we not still working with the "Old Testament?" The reason is written countless times on this site. I don't say Ta'am is not a problem. That is a play on words. I say that the things that I have listed as permitted do not have the Ta'Am. Open the Laws of Taaruvot, & learn it properly & then you'll see how ridiculous it is to ask me to bring proof to something against the opposing opinion that has no basis whatsoever. I say it's good. You want to disagree, show me! In Subway your tuna sandwich is cold, otherwise known as Tzonen. It cannot get anything that was absorbed in the pots and utensils to come out. That is from the ABC's. The fact that you bought the Hasgachah industry's bogus lies about these laws, does not require me to sit down and teach you the whole Torah on one foot. Go to your nearest Beit Medrash and begin learning. AA
