Reply To: What’s the Halacha?

Coffee Addict, I would love to hear more about it. Care to expound a bit on what you know?

More than just the ingredients, there is a bigger issue. Personally, I think that when at a wedding, you wash on those tiny barley shaped rolls you should still need to make Brachos on everything else. I mean, how can that little hard “roll” be the basis of the meal when ot is just there because they’re forced to have Hamotzi? How can the real meal be considered מלפף את הפת?

On the other hand, wraps are the real deal. That seems to be the way bread was actually used in the olden days. That’s how and why the Bracha on bread includes the whole meal.

Now, obviously we aren’t about to change classic Halachos, but it does make me take a more serious look at wraps, even when the ingredients would normally render it Mezonos. To make it more clear, I’m from those guys that wash and Bentch on “Mezonos rolls”. And so, from that to this may not be a big jump.

I did bring this up woth some Rabbonim, but I haven’t heard of any public stance clarifying this issue.
