Reply To: This Beer Predicament

Frumnotyeshivish: The Jewish 5 Towns article referenced earlier has all the information including the “greater than 50% statistic.” You might want to scroll up the thread a bit before you start screaming at people. As for the stock ownership, I’ve never really understood how stock ownership in chametz over Pesach works, and I’m sure it’s really interesting, but that would really derail this thread.

As for this “math” business. I think randomex was [rightly] objecting to it being broken into 4 different things. 1) this beer and 2) owned by and 3) a Jew are really only one safek, not 3. The beer you’re looking at was either owned by a Jew or a goy, that’s not 3 distinct questions.
