ורבי שמעון מתיר. ברישא לא פליג רבי שמעון כיון דנפל שאור של תרומה קודם שנתחמצה בשל חולין והרי היא ממהרת להתחמץ על ידי שאור של תרומה. אבל בסיפא כיון דכבר נתחמצה בשל חולין כי הדר נפיל של תרומה אינו אלא פוגם. ורבנן סברי אע״ג דבעלמא נותן טעם לפגם מותר שאני הכא שהוא עושה אותה ראויה לחמץ בה כמה עיסות אחרות. והלכה כחכמים:

ערלה פרק ב׳ משנה י׳
Bartenura
תבלין שנים וג' שמות – three prohibited things are divided one from another, they are called three [different] types , such as peppers of Orlah/prohibited fruit of the first three years, or of a tree worshipped as an idol/Asherah or of a heave-offering/Terumah.
אסור ומצטרפין – meaning to say that they combine together to prohibit the cooked food that was seasoned by them.
או שני מינים משם אחד – such as an Arabic spice plant/ginger and pepper, and both are Orlah, or both are Terumah, but the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Shimon.
תבלין שנים ושלשה שמות. שלשה איסורין חלוקין זה מזה קרי שלשה שמות, כגון פלפלין של ערלה ושל אשרה ושל תרומה:
אסור ומצטרפין. כלומר מצטרפין יחד לאסור התבשיל שנתבשל בהם:
או שני מינים משם אחד. כגון זנגביל ופלפלין ושניהם ערלה או שניהם תרומה. ואין הלכה כרבי שמעון:
Mishnah Yomi FAQ
What is Mishnah Yomi?

Who started the Mishnah Yomi program?
In 1934, the Kozoglover Gaon, Rav Aryeh Tzvi Frommer, who took over from Rav Meir Shapiro (the founder of Daf Yomi) as the head of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, initiated the Mishnah Yomi cycle, focusing on Seder Zeraim and Seder Taharos. After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah. The idea of studying two Mishnayos daily gained the support of figures like Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, the Tchebiner Rov, and the Gerer Rebbe, marking the formal inception of Mishnah Yomi.

ור"ש מתיר – in the first clause [of the Mishnah], Rabbi Shimon did not dispute since the leaven of heave-offering fell prior to the leavening of the unconsecrated produce. For it hurries to leaven through the leaven of heave-offering, but in the concluding clause [of the Mishnah], since it already became leavened in the unconsecrated produce. For when it Terumah/heave-offering falls, it does nothing other than disqualify/make it unfit, but the Rabbis hold that even though in general, when it gives it a bad taste, it is permissible, but it is different here as it makes it appropriate to leaven other pieces of started dough, and the Halakha is according to the Sages.
