Question

My wife made etrog jam from the seventh year etrogs, and it didn't turn out tasty, and no one is eating it. What should we do with it, as it doesn't spoil? How long do we need to keep it? 

Answer

Shalom Rav

It is permissible to place the jam in a location where it will eventually be exposed to sunlight, causing it to spoil. However, it should be placed there when there is no sun, so it is not considered as spoiling it directly.
