<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">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 --
