[Avodah] Even More on Granola Bars

[Yitzchok Levine]

The following is from today's Hakhel Email Bulletin. YL

>Special Note One:  One more important point 
>regarding our, by now, old friend, the granola 
>bar.  As we discussed over the last two days, 
>one would not be making a Borei Nefashos over 
>the toasted whole grains of the granola bar if 
>he ate less than 1 ½ bars within two (or 
>according to some opinions, up to five) 
>minutes.  There are, however, other ingredients 
>in the granola bar which would require a Borei 
>Nefashos lechatchila.  In reviewing the matter 
>with a Rabbinic coordinator at the OU, we 
>concluded that if one consumed one whole granola 
>bar in less than two minutes, he should make a 
>Borei Nefashos on the bar, based on his 
>consumption of a kezayis of non-toasted whole 
>grain content within a Kidei Achilas Pras.  At 
>this time, we do not plan to continue our 
>discussion on this topic.  Instead, we provide 
>the entire article as it appeared in the Daf 
>Hakashrus, by the following link -- http://tinyurl.com/ykd5e5x   Enjoy!
