Question
I bought hats, socks, and the like for a trip abroad…
and I discovered that they are made of wool – do I need to have them checked for shaatnez?
It should be noted that they were bought from inexpensive companies and did not cost much.
In addition, I baked a cake for Ezer Mizion and the driver did not pick it up – may I use it and eat it, or is it considered dedicated to tzedakah?
Thank you!
Answer
Shalom and blessings
There is no need to check, unless there are additional sewings or embroidery that were added onto the garment.
You may use the cake, and for the next collection bring another cake in its place.
