Which foods should one avoid eating on Rosh Hashana?

So you see you don't need the alef -- ches+tes […]
bechira?
Rich, Joel: bechira?: [...] I think R Amram is quoting Rav is saying that for most of us, situations arise daily where it would be beyond the nequdas habechirah for us to avoid hirhurei aveira, sliding through davening without thinking or saying LH. R Dessler to the rescue. […]
bechira?
Micha Berger: bechira?: [...] Not directly, but... One could be accountable for it beyond beyond one's nequdah. A tinoq shenishba wouldn't, because they started out with the conflicts on some subject being at a low level. But if it's the location of the "battlefront" is at a pathetic location because of the person's […]

(Nesiva haAvodah ch. 12) I […]
