Question:
If a person eats pickled olives during a bread meal (tuna sandwich), does he or she have to make a separate bracha for the olives?You might eat it together with the sandwich or bread or separately during the meal?
Answer:
Olives are considered part of the meal, and therefore are considered an accompaniment to the bread. Therefore it does not get its own bracha, and is included in the hamotzei made on the bread.
Best wishes
