Using a Vase for Food Without Immersion
Question
We have a vase used for flowers, and we want to put melon and watermelon balls in it (for a bar at an event). Is there an issue with the vase not being immersed?
Answer
Dear Sir,
If it is a one-time use, in a vessel intended for something else, there is no obligation for immersion.
However, if you use it occasionally for food, immersion is required.
