Carrying nutshells
Question
If someone ate a nut on Shabbos, and now he a has a shell in his hand, what is he supposed to do with it? Can he take to the trashcan, or does he have to drop it right away? Is it similar to the law, concerning mukze machmas gufo?
Answer
Dear …!
Because he took this nutshell in his hand in a way that was absolutely permitted, since it was part of his food, he is now allowed to take it to the trashcan.
