Reply To: Waiter’s finger was in my my soup!

I have a proof that a living thing is polet/boleah – namely, a living animal/person will expell his issor and prohibit something else:

The knife of shchita, in Chulin 8b the gemara discusses that the knife needs kashering because it absorbed from the aminal during the shchita. Then the gemara questions, wouldn’t the knife anyway be ossur because it absorbed the hot blood which is ever min ha’CHAI (the living animal makes the knife ossur)!

This is a clear proof that a living animal would make ossur a hot soup by entering it – likewise, the waiter’s finger…

Maybe I should only eat eggs and cheese.
