<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This question has come up before but I'd like to
get your input. The Schach in YD 119:20 writes that someone who does not eat
something because of minhag avotav/haqpada can eat it when being hosted by
someone who does eat if "he sees a heter b'devar". What does that phrase mean? I
learned this with a friend and he thought that it meant something which we all
know is muttar, but have accepted not to eat it out of minhag (e.g. kitniot). On
this list, someone thought that it meant "not insulting the host".</FONT></DIV>
