Question

How many dates require a final blessing? Thank you very much

Answer

Greetings,

If you have eaten a quantity of dates amounting to a Kezayit (27 grams), you should recite a final blessing.

In the case of large dates (Medjool), typically you will reach a Kezayit with two dates.

Best regards,

Hillel Meirs
