Date: October 6th, 2025 11:44 AM Author: Floppy disgusting corner dog poop interesting q. chatgpt says it's the etrog's clit:
***
what is the biologicial purpose of a the pitam on the etrog (citron fruit)? ChatGPT said:
Great question — and a surprisingly deep one botanically!
The pitam (פִּטָם) on an etrog — the little stemlike protrusion with a “button” at the end opposite the branch — actually corresponds to the style and stigma of the citron flower (the female reproductive part). In biological terms, it’s the remnant of the flower’s pistil that remains attached after pollination and fruit development.
Here’s the breakdown:
In most fruits (like lemons, oranges, etc.), the style and stigma dry up and fall off once the fruit begins to grow.
In etrogim (and certain other varieties of citron), however, the pitam persists as the fruit matures.
The ball-like structure at the tip of the pitam is the stigma (where pollen lands), and the thin column is the style, which once connected the stigma to the ovary inside the fruit.
So, biologically, the pitam had a reproductive purpose during flowering — enabling pollination and fertilization — but by the time we see the fruit, it’s just a leftover floral structure with no ongoing function for the plant.
Interestingly, many commercial citron varieties (especially those grown for fragrance or food) have been bred to drop the pitam early so the fruit isn’t damaged easily — the pitam can fall off with a small bump, which is why for sukkot we’re careful that it remain intact (pitam shenafal = invalid).
So in short:
🌼 Biological purpose: originally part of the flower’s reproductive organ (style and stigma). 🍋 Current role: none — just a remnant after pollination, but culturally significant for ritual use.
Would you like me to show a labeled diagram of an etrog flower and fruit showing which parts correspond to the pitam? |

Date: October 6th, 2025 11:52 AM Author: misunderstood territorial water buffalo mad cow disease if people grow them for food why are they so expensive? is it just the ritual-friendly ones that command the big numbers (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5783584&forum_id=2\u0026show=my",#49328806) |

Date: October 6th, 2025 12:19 PM Author: Floppy disgusting corner dog poop not a mfe, but afak it's bc of grafting.
a kosher citron tree can't be grafted, and all of the citrons used for food are grafted.
so you only have a limited number of trees in the world that are eligible to produce kosher etrogs. and then a ton of them have various blemishes to make them not-kosher.
so yeah, kinda what you say -- the ritual-friendly ones command the big numbers.
plus, a lot of the industry is jewish mafia -- jews driving up the prices to fuck over other jews. |

Date: October 6th, 2025 3:17 PM Author: misunderstood territorial water buffalo mad cow disease why do they do that stuff man ritual objects should be cheap and easily accessible. maybe you don't get the finest etrog for 10$ but it should be servicable and have a nice nub on it. a "good" quality of reagants or services in religious activity should never be price-gated. it's like selling indulgences |

Date: October 6th, 2025 3:19 PM Author: Floppy disgusting corner dog poop rofl this is jews.
wait until you see how much jews overcharge other jews on kosher for passover food.

Date: October 6th, 2025 3:26 PM Author: misunderstood territorial water buffalo mad cow disease doesn't it pollute the moral quality of the ritual function being performed with the object when the seller is engaged in gouging, which is effectively a form of exploitation? this isn't a jewish unique issue per se but i do see a lot of it with jews a common israeli expat complaint about israel is "every jew is constantly trying to grift the others" there. it makes no sense. wasn't the country founded on the strength of the kibbutz? is it because the israeli population makeup is so racially diverse now? |
|
Date: October 6th, 2025 3:34 PM Author: Floppy disgusting corner dog poop ofs it all feels like a scam. apologists would just call it supply and demand.
anyway, the torah requires you to acquire an etrog and it doesn't say you're exempt if the seller is trying to gouge you. so you dont have a choice.
you're not allowed to perform a ritual on a stolen item. you cant steal an etrog and get credit for fulfilling the mitzvah. but you still have to get gouged.
the kibbutz culture of israel is completely dead. the kibbutzniks were commie ashkenazis. between the barbaric sephardim and the sleazy russians and the need for israel to be capitalistic to keep up with the rest of the world, there's no way kibbutz socialism could survive.

Date: October 6th, 2025 3:39 PM Author: misunderstood territorial water buffalo mad cow disease why isn't there rabbinical law putting an onus on the sellers as well? the purview of the temple would include both sides of the transaction if it's oriented around a ritual object, and jews seem to listen to rabbis more than christians do to their priests, on average. catholics had dogma about this in certain countries throughout europe regarding sellers of votives and other ritual objects, with the caveat that it was on what merchants could sell directly to the church which is a little more suspect than regulating the market entirely to release the faithful from needless burden (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5783584&forum_id=2\u0026show=my",#49329756) |

Date: October 6th, 2025 3:42 PM Author: Floppy disgusting corner dog poop tbf, there's jewish law that a seller is only allowed to charge a 1/6 markup on a good, but there are all sorts of exceptions to that.
