“-Esrog pitom or not? Yes Why? Otherwise it’s possul. ”
You’d have a hard time in E”Y with that one. I’ve not seen one with a pitum here since we made aliyah. Are etrogim with a pitum even available here?
The only time I’ve had a etrog with a pitum in the last 15 years was in 2020, when I was in Pittsburgh due to a family medical emergency. After I bought mine from one of the shules, I asked the Rav if there were any without a pitum, and he said no.
