Question

Is there a source for: 1. During Kedusha, at the words 'And one called to another', nodding the head to the right and left 2. The saying 'Whoever eats fish on the day of fish is saved from fish' 3. Cutting a small piece from the challah that is not eaten

Answer

Hello Rabbi

A. There is no source for this in the poskim.

B. A saying of the common people. The book 'Shulchan Lechem HaPanim' provides some support for this saying.

C. There is no source. It seems to have originated from the halacha to cut from the best part of the bread, and usually, the edge is not well-baked or burnt
