Blessing after Date and Apple

Question

Ate one date and a small piece of apple, what blessing should be recited?

Answer

If the date is more than a kezayit, only 'Al Ha'etz' is recited, as the important blessing covers the apple. However, if less than a kezayit of date was eaten and together with the apple there is a kezayit, 'Borei Nefashot' is recited.
