[Avodah] Pas Akum and Shabbos

[Prof. Levine]

The following is from http://www.thehalacha.com/attach/Volume4/Issue4.pdf

One should try not to buy pas akum foods26
(even for a snack)27 out of honor for Shabbos,28
even if one normally eats it during the week.
Although, many people like eating Stella Dora
cookies because it is a good snack, pareve, and a
great treat for a Shabbos afternoon when one is
fleishig, this should be avoided on Shabbos since
they are pas akum.29 According to some poskim
the same applies to pretzels.30

26 Magen Avraham 242:4, Elya Rabbah 10, Shulchan
Aruch Harav 12, Chai Adom Shabbos 1:4, Chesed
L'alafim 3, Mishnah Berurah 6.
27 Shar Ha'tzyion 18.
28 Elya Rabbah 10.
29 Horav Yisroel Belsky Shlita.

8:431:3. There is no difference on the thinness of the
pretzel (Horav Yisroel Belsky Shlita).
