One Who Ate Half a Kezyit of Bread and Half a Kezyit of Mezonot

One Who Ate Half a Kezyit of Bread and Half a Kezyit of Mezonot
Day: Sunday
Date: February 21, 2016
Parshat: Ki Tisa
Yalkut Yosef: O"H: 208


There is a mahloket among the poskim whether or not al hamihya can also cover foods that require birkat hamazon. In deference to the opinions that do not allow it, one may not say al hamihya as an after bercha after eating bread. Ideally, one should avoid placing himself in such a situation where he had half a kezayit of bread and half a kezayit of mezonot foods. One who did put himself in such a situation, should either eat another half kezayit of bread and say birkat hamazon or half a kezayit of mezonot and say al hamihya. If neither of those is possible, no after beracha is said. Likewise, one who ate half a kezyit of grain based mezonot foods and half a kezyit of rice, does not say any after beracha.
