<P>This kashrus alert came in a kashrut.com email:
<P>--begin quote--</P>
<P>Pomegranates and other fruits from Israel are being marketed in Pick ‘n Pay
and other outlets. The laws of Shemitta apply to such fruits. They may be eaten,
but cannot be purchased with cash unless other non Shemitta items are purchased
together with them. They may be purchased with credit cards. <BR>These fruits
must be treated with respect and remnants and peels should be wrapped up prior
to disposal. </P>
<P>--end quote--</P>
<P> </P>
<P>Can somebody please explain what is the problem with paying cash and why
using a credit card is OK?</P></DIV>
