[Avodah] Al Zeh Gazru VeAl Zeh Lo Gazru - We have no authority to decree new gezeros

[Rabbi Meir G. Rabi via Avodah]

Although it has been said
on these hallowed pages
Al Zeh Gazru VeAl Zeh Lo Gazru - We have no authority to decree new gezeros

yet many felt that the new stainless steel Shechitah knives were forbidden
machicne Matza was forbidden
Ben PeKuAh is forbidden
they're even arguing that soft Matza is forbidden for Ashkenazim
etc.

But it is Kula Chada Gezeira
Thus newly discovered foods are Kitniyos

And whatever the truth is
we are V lucky that potato was not included
and not reversed
remember when peanuts were KLP?

Best,

Meir G. Rabi
