Question:

Hi if i felt use holy salt in food and it blesses the food is it wrong to dispose of the food in normal ways or to give the scraps to the dog?

Thanks



Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OMSM(r), CCL, LTh, DD, LNDC

Dear John:

There is no problem in disposing of food, or giving it to the dog, that has been blessed with Holy Salt or Holy Water. Both the Salt and the Water are no longer in their original form, but are disolved into the food, thus there is no sacrilege here.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
