Credibility of a Person Who Does Not Recite a Blessing
Question
I bought cookies at a bakery with a reliable kashrut certification, and the seller, who does not observe mitzvot, told me that the blessing for them is 'shehakol'. Can I trust him?
Answer
Shalom Rav
He is not credible to determine the blessing. However, he is credible to state what they contain, and thus you can determine the blessing yourself.
