Question:
Pesachim 12: & O”H 157,1 says if you didn’t eat anything by Chatzos, the eating afterwards will be worthless, unless you tasted something beforehand.
Is a drink enough for that? How about water..?
Thank you very much!
Answer:
It isn’t a good idea to wait so long to eat, because we need the energy to do what we have to during the day. However if one didn’t eat, he may rely on those who say that drinking is enough.
