Selling Leavened Food for a Limited Company
Question
Hello Rabbi,
Is there a problem with eating leavened food that a limited company did not sell to a non-Jew over Passover (assuming the company is owned by a Jew)? In other words, is the rabbinic decree concerning leavened food owned by a Jew over Passover also relevant to limited companies owned by Jews?
Best regards,
Answer
As for the leavened food during Passover itself, that requires discussion, but simply speaking, in my opinion there is no one here who violates the prohibition of “it shall not be seen.” Consequently, there would also be no prohibition of leavened food that remained in Jewish ownership over Passover. Many have dealt with this, and you can find material online.
