Question
What is the blessing for the product 'Toastim' - crackers from Osem? Mezonot or HaMotzi?
Answer
Shalom u'vracha
I have not seen the product's ingredients, but from the description, it is understood that these are regular crackers without added flavors, made from toasted bread.
In such a case, according to the basic law, the blessing is 'Mezonot', because it was initially made with the intention to toast it, and in this state, it is 'crispy'.
However, it is advisable to be stringent and eat it within a meal - because at the intermediate stage it was regular bread.
