“You think that R. Moshe’s rebetzin would have made “Scarboro Fair Chicken?” based on the goyishe song? I dont think so!”
Do you think that she would’ve known that the chicken is based on a goyishe song? I didn’t. If it tastes good, eat it. When you cook the chicken, does it sing said goyishe song? Does it magically pervert the minds of those eating it?
“So you think its okay for a family to have peanut butter and jelly sandwichs if their reserved for shabbas?”
If they’re special? Why not? The kids know they can only have peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on Shabbos. Let’s say they don’t have it in school and never see anyone eating them other than Shabbos (it’s a nut-free school, maybe?). For them, it’s special, and that’s what counts. Sometimes I have peanut butter and jelly on challah for Seudas Shlishis – what’s so wrong with that?
