Q. If I give a milchik box of chocolates as shalach monos to someone who has begun his fleishig Purim seuda, is it a mitzvah?

A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit”a opinion is that you do comply with the mitzvah of shalach manos. True, he won’t be able to eat those chocolates himself on Purim, but it is “manos” and they could be bartered for another’s “manos”.

Rabbi A. Bartfeld as advised by Horav Shlomo Miller Shlit’a
