# There are some who defend the widespread minhag to be lenient about [[Chadash]].

* The Beiur Halacha (489:10 s.v. Af) writes that someone mistakenly think that if they are going to be strict about this prohibition, they have to be strict on everything entailed in the prohibition, on all grains, on drinks, and pots used for Chaddash, however, it’s much more proper to recognize that there’s what to rely on in many of the disputed cases such as drinks, pots used for Chaddash, and also the majority of many grains are grown before [[Pesach]] and so, one should endeavor to be strict at least in cases of certain Chaddash, but even in such cases one can’t rebuke the masses. | * The Beiur Halacha (489:10 s.v.
