But in case it isn't, the Queen's canned food is not "cooked", but steamed. Same as the ones you peasants have.I still can't think of a canned product that Bishul Akum would apply.<</div><div> </div><div> The original statement began, ""And as for bishul akum, not sure what product he is talking about, not fit for a kings table or can be eaten raw take care of everything I can think of."</div><div> </div><div> My remark was addressed to this comment. If the queen's pantry does contain cans, then it would appear that there is canned food "fit for a king's table."</div><div> </div><div> I lack the expertise to evaluate the assertion that no canned food is ever cooked by fire prior to canning or in the can. and would appreciate knowing the basis for that assertion. I recall that several years ago, the Chief Rabbinate of Israel wanted to withhold its approval of OU-supervised canned tuna fish because of bishul aku"m concerns.</div><div> </div><div>EMT</div></html>
