Reply To: Klerr about Kavua

How can you say that you can tell which meat store it is? We apply Kal Kavua by Teisha Chanuyos. If you can tell which one it is then there is no Shayla about which one you are in,

This is a mistake. The classic case of kol kavua is where you have a piece of meat in your hand and are not sure which store you bought it from; not that you do not know which store is kosher.

In fact, my personal understanding of the Rashba (although this gets extremely complicated in the acharonim) is that if you truly could not tell which store is which then mid’oraisa bittul would apply; you would only have to contend with the d’rabbanan of davar chashuv.

Ayin heitev b’Toras Habayis.
