My Rebbi says a good pilpul in a sugya rips up a bad decree (forgot the source). That's why he does a pilpul for his Shabbos Shuva drasha.
Thanks! Will beh try to learn something up!

Story with the Taz?

Also, I believe that R'Eizekel Kamarna says something of the sort, but I'm not 100% sure.

does anyone know if the halachah of to'us akum applies to https://www.leesa.com/ ?
I originally got this through Amazon which Amazon cancelled, but I still received the order. I called up the company and they told me that they don't sell these mattresses any longer, Amazon is now the seller. According to what they told me at the time of the tous it was on the company's end as they were the seller at the time. They told me that since they don't sell this any longer I shouldn't call Amazon and that I should have them pick it up from me so they can give it to charity. What is my responsibility now??

This practically means pineapple is always assur.
The same issue applies to papaya.  Pretty much the same deal.
Mr anonymous Lakewood guy needs a posek on his team.  I've spoken to a major posek about papaya who understood the issue and paskened that we should consider it haadama

Guys, what else do you want him to do? He is the vaad for shmiras dinei orlah. What should he do? NOT say that things that were never orlah are now orlah? Then what would he do all day?

Of course he is not ashamed, that doesn't mean he wants it posted online right after someone makes fun of him.
