הָאוֹמֵר לַחֲבֵרוֹ, הֵילָךְ אִסָּר זֶה וְתֶן לִי בוֹ חָמֵשׁ תְּאֵנִים, לֹא יֹאכַל עַד שֶׁיְּעַשֵּׂר, דִּבְרֵי רַבִּי מֵאִיר. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, אוֹכֵל אַחַת אַחַת, פָּטוּר, וְאִם צֵרַף, חַיָּב. אָמַר רַבִּי יְהוּדָה, מַעֲשֶׂה בְגִנַּת וְרָדִים שֶׁהָיְתָה בִירוּשָׁלַיִם, וְהָיוּ תְאֵנִים נִמְכָּרוֹת מִשָּׁלֹשׁ וּמֵאַרְבַּע בְּאִסָּר, וְלֹא הֻפְרַשׁ מִמֶּנָּה תְרוּמָה וּמַעֲשֵׂר מֵעוֹלָם:

One who says to his friend: “Here is this <i>Issar</i> [specific unit of money], and give me five figs for it”, he may not eat [of them] until he has tithed [them], the words of Rabbi Meir. Rabbi Yehudah says: if he ate them one by one, he is exempt. If he combined them, he is required [to tithe.] Rabbi Yehudah said: it happened in a rose-garden that was in Jerusalem, and there were figs being sold three or four for an <i>Issar</i>, and neither <i>Terumah</i> nor tithes were ever set aside from it.

Tosefta Maasrot

One who says to his fried, "Take this issur and buy me five figs with it" -- he may eat them one by one and be exempt, but if he combines them together [to eat them], he is liable (Maasr. 2:5). If the homeowner took out food and gave it to him, there is no need to tithe, the words of Rabbi Meir. Rabbi Yehuda says, either way, if he eats [the food] one by one he is exempt, but if he combines it, he is liable.
