What is the ruling if a man tells his two wives, 'If you eat these two loaves of bread,' and each wife eats one loaf?

Primary text

Divorce occurs in this case. This is because it is impossible for each wife to eat both loaves, unlike the situations involving the two men or the two houses, which allowed for individual completion of the condition in a manner that suggests the condition is met by each spouse completing their part of the joint specification.
