Question
A person ate, 72 minutes have passed, and he is in doubt whether he is still satisfied and can recite the blessing, or if he is no longer satisfied.
Answer
If he ate bread with the blessing “haMotzi,” he should wash his hands again without a blessing, recite “haMotzi,” eat half a slice, and then recite Birkat HaMazon (Grace after Meals). If he ate mezonot (grain-based foods with the “mezonot” blessing), he should recite the “mezonot” blessing again, eat some more, and then recite the after-blessing. If he has no more food — for bread he should recite the blessing, but for mezonot he does not recite it.
