Question
A person recited a blessing over a date while standing on the street as he was waiting for transportation, and ate from it. Afterwards he boarded the vehicle and wants to continue eating dates. Does he need to recite a new blessing over the dates inside the vehicle?
Answer
Shalom u‑berachah
One who recited a blessing over food in a certain place and then changed his location is required to recite the blessing again.
If he began eating while already on the way and continues eating on the way, he is not required to recite a new blessing. Therefore, one who began eating dates after he had already started leaving the house, with the intention of continuing to eat along the way, does not need to recite another blessing.
