Question
On Friday, I cut a lemon with a meat knife, squeezed it into a bowl for sauce, and mixed it with a pareve blender. On Friday, I called a hotline to ask if it was permissible, and they said yes. I was concerned that the details were not conveyed correctly because lemon is a sharp item... Did I act correctly? And if not, what is the status of the blender?
Answer
Hello
Lemon is a sharp item, and therefore, one should not use pareve utensils for it.
However, if the blender was used to mix liquid or a soft item, the blender does not become meaty.
