Demai is not subject to [the surcharge of] a fifth; it is not subject to [the law of] remov-al; it may be eaten by an onein; it may enter Jerusalem and leave; we may abandon a small portion of it on the road; one may give it to an am haaretz, but must eat a corresponding amount [in Jerusalem]; and we may deconsecrate its [re-demption money], [from] silver [coins] onto silver [coins], [from] copper [coins] onto copper [coins], [from] silver [coins] onto copper [coins], and [from] copper [coins] onto produce, provided that he then redeems the produce. [These are the] words of R’ Meir. But the Sages say: He brings the produce up and it is eaten in Jerusalem.
