Question

He started eating mezonot, and in the middle, he sees that he is eating the amount that constitutes a meal. Does he need to wash hands and say the 'hamotzi' blessing?

Answer

If he does not have left to eat the amount that constitutes a meal, he does not need to wash hands or say the 'hamotzi' blessing, he only needs to say the 'borei minei mezonot' blessing again and then the 'birkat hamazon'.
