##If someone isn't sure whether he recited Al Hamichya or another Mein Shalosh he should have another kezayit of that food so that he can then recite a certain Bracha Achat Mein Shalosh. However, if he can't exempt it he should not repeat Mein Shalosh.<ref>Mishna Brurah 209:10. He adds that if he can't have another kezayit of the same food he can have a kezayit of another category of Mein Shalosh and include in the Mein Shalosh the one he originally had. For example, if he had a cookie and doesn't know if he recited Al Hamichya he can have a kezayit of dates and recite a combination Mein Shalosh with both Al Hamichya and Al Haetz. This is in line with his opinion in Mishna Brurah 208:82 but in disagreement with Sephardic practice (Shulchan Aruch 208:18).</ref>

#If someone has a food that’s there's a dispute whether it is Al Hagefen one should not eat that food together with a [[Kezayit]] of [[Shehakol]] and [[Kezayit]] of Shevat HaMinim as it’s forbidden to add any addition to [[Al HaMichya]] even if it doesn’t cause an addition of Hashem’s name. <ref>Shulchan Aruch 208:18 based on the Trumat HaDeshen 30</ref>
