Commentary for Keritot 27:27

רב פפא אמר

But then why not state six sin-offerings', and explain it [as dealing with the case] where he ate in addition an olive-size of blood? - [The Mishnah] speaks of one act of eating and not of two, and the Rabbis have calculated that the gullet cannot hold more than two olive-sizes at a time.
