Hello dear Rabbis and fellow Noahides, my name is Robert and I am new here. My question for You is this:
I have recently purchased a bottle of Croatian mineral spring water because of its health benefits. However, I noticed that there is a 2-D image of a figure on the label depicting an idolatrous deity. My first guess was that it represents a regular statue but their internet site specifically mentions that the figure is a pagan deity. I have cut out the figure on the cover with a pair of scissors in the attempt to nullify it. Is it now permissible to drink the bottled water?
Thank You for your time,
with blessings and greetings from Croatia, Europe.
