Today’s Daf Yomi Question:
When calculating the egg-volume for the halacha of Tuma we don’t apply any adjustments based on fluctuating egg sizes – why?
A healthy person is meant to consume 43.2 egg-volumes per day. How does this align with the Mishna that two meals (i.e. a day’s worth) is merely six egg-worth?
Shiurim are Halacha Lemoshe Misinai. But, this might also be based on the Beis Habliah.
A Shiur Seuda is the minimum amount to called a Seuda, much like a Kezayis is the minimum amount to be called eaten.
Actually it seems like we aren’t necessarily referring to bread here. The amount of bread for a Seuda is 4 eggs, but the normal food consumption for a day is 7⅕ egg sizes.
