Smag (Asin 27), Rabbenu Yonah Brachot 32a s.v. vnirah, and Rambam Brachot 8:12 (as understood by Bet Yosef 209:3) hold that it is derabbanan. Shulchan Aruch 209:3 holds like the Rambam that it is only rabbinic.</ref> | ||
##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 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.

#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> | #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> | ||

#If a person ate cake or any mezonot the minhag is to recite al hamichya as long as he ate a kezayit of the cake if there is a proportion of 1 portion of 1 flour to 6 parts of the total ingredients.<ref>Mishna Brurah 208:48 writes that even though some poskim hold that it is necessary to eat a kezayit of flour excluding the other ingredients the minhag is to include the other ingredients if there is a ratio of 1 part flour to 6 parts of the total ingredients. Chazon Ovadyah ([[Brachot]] pg 190) accepts this opinion of only requiring 1/6 flour. Birkat Hashem (vol 2, pg 166), Or Letzion (vol 2, pg 169), and [http://www.dailyhalacha.com/displayRead.asp?readID=1565 Daily Halacha (by Rabbi Mansour)] concur.</ref> | #If a person ate cake or any mezonot the minhag is to recite al hamichya as long as he ate a kezayit of the cake if there is a proportion of 1 portion of 1 flour to 6 parts of the total ingredients.<ref>Mishna Brurah 208:48 writes that even though some poskim hold that it is necessary to eat a kezayit of flour excluding the other ingredients the minhag is to include the other ingredients if there is a ratio of 1 part flour to 6 parts of the total ingredients.

#One who ate a kazayit of cake and 18 grams of fruit from one of the 7 species may add "al haetz veal peri haetz" in al hamihya. Similarly, one who ate a kazayit of cake and drank a reviit of wine may add "al hagefen veal peri hagefen" in al hamihya. <ref> Hazon Ovadia, Page 199 </ref> | |||
