Question
If one mistakenly recited the 'Shehakol' blessing on water after eating bread, does one need to recite 'Shehakol' again when wanting to eat chocolate?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
One should not recite a blessing on the chocolate.
The blessing on the water was not clearly in vain, as there are opinions that one should bless on drinking water during a meal. And if the blessing was valid, it covers anything that requires the 'Shehakol' blessing. Therefore, due to doubt, one should not bless.
