Reply To: Karpas – is any ha’adoma ok?

Reb. The ArtScroll book Law of Brochos states that Raw onions are a shehakol. The fact that raw onions are put in a salad or even herring just makes it an ikor/tofel issue. How many people do you know who bites into a raw onion to eat it like an apple. As o your comment about a kezayis, I do not know of any shiur kezayis that states you need to eat a half box of matzah.
