Using a pot that has not been used for 30 days:[1]
One should not eat food that was cooked in a pot that had not been used for cooking for 30 days.[2] However, the world is not careful in this matter.[3] [Practically, the danger is only applicable if one did not wash the pot prior to use after 30 days, if however one washed the pot prior to using it then there is no danger involved in eating a food that was cooked in it even after 30 days of nonuse.[4] Likewise, the danger is only applicable if one eats the food directly from the pot. If, however, one first pours the content into a second vessel, such as a plate, and eats it from there, then there is no danger involved.[5]]
