[Avodah] heter mechira produce

[Goldmeier]

I asked my Rav whether b'shaas ha'dchak one could rely on heter mechora. 
I based my question on the psak from Rav Shlomo zalman that it is mittar 
b'achila, with kedushas shviis.

His response was that even if we hold shamur v'neevad is muttar (which 
is the basis for Rav Shlomo Zalman's psak), there is still a problem of 
sefichim and sefichim is assur comlpetely.

So I guess if you know the hetter mechira produce is not sefichin, maybe 
it would be ok...
