# Preferably one should be strict when making sure to have less than a Reviyit to  consider this Reviyit to include anything one tasted the whole day, however, the strict law is that one only has to make sure to have less than a Reviyit each time one tastes. <Ref> S”A 567:2 quotes a dispute whether one is allowed to taste up to a Reviyit and the Reviyit is a combination of anything one tasted the whole day or that one may taste up to a Reviyit many times if at each time it is less than a Reviyit (according to the explanation of Mishna Brurah 567:7 and 9). Kaf HaChaim 567:12 rules that the halacha follows the second opinion but preferably one should be strict for the first opinion as well. Mishna Brurah 567:8 also implies this. </ref>
