Question
A lemon that was cut with a dairy knife and then squeezed into a meat blender that hasn't been used for a day - although not hot but pickled - is the utensil forbidden? If possible, breaking down the question would really help me at least know how to ask: 1. Is a lemon considered spicy, and when cut with a dairy knife, how much of it is forbidden? The thickness of the peel or the knife? 2. Even if only the thickness of the knife, it seems there isn't 60 in the lemon against the thickness of the knife, and if so, is it considered entirely dairy? 3. Can all the lemons that entered the blender be considered together as having 60 against the knife, since only one knife cut everything, and if in each lemon there isn't 60, but in all the lemons together there is 60?
Answer
Hello Rabbi
The answer of our teacher, the Gaon, Rabbi Avraham Fried, shlita:
It is considered slightly spicy, and if mixed with the other type, it is permitted.
