# If one ate a [[Kezayit]] of a fruit or vegetable not from the 7 species with which [[Israel]] is praised (i.e. wheat, barley, grapes, figs, pomegranates, olives, dates), and anything which doesn't grow from the ground, one should say a [[Boreh Nefashot]]. <ref>Shulchan Aruch 207:1, Kitzur Shulchan Aruch 51:1</ref> For example, the Bracha Achrona for water is [[Boreh Nefashot]]. <ref>Mishna Brurah 207:5</ref>

===Combining Foods to Make a Boreh Nefashot===
# If someone ate half a kezayit of mein shalosh and half a kezayit of boreh nefashot one should recite boreh nefashot.<ref>The Mishna Brurah 210:1 writes that a half kezayit of mein shalosh and half kezayit of boreh nefashot combine to obligate in a boreh nefashot. The Dirshu quotes Or Letzion 1:19 and Igrot Moshe 1:74  who explain that even though a boreh nefashot doesn't exempt a mein shalosh (see S”A 202:11) still since a half kezayit of mein shalosh isn't yet obligated in mein shalosh it can be used towards the shiur of boreh nefashot.</ref>
# If someone ate half a kezayit of one type of mein shalosh and half a kezayit of another type of mein shalosh many poskim say to recite boreh nefashot. <Ref>Kitzur Shulchan Aruch 51:4 writes that one should recite a boreh nefashot on half kezayit cookies and half kezayit al haetz. Dirshu quoted Rav Shlomo Zalman who said that according to Igrot Moshe 2:109 one could make a mein shalosh with both conclusions. Halichot Shlomo (Pesach 12 n. 39) quotes Rav Shlomo Zalman and Rav Elyashiv who agreed with the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch.</ref>
