Funen bakers have taken up the challenge to find a new recipe for communion wafers For centuries, Danish churchgoers have received the body of Christ in the form of a small, bland communion wafer. Now, competition is on the way. Ninety master bakers from the island of Funen have taken up the challenge to experiment with new recipes for the holy flesh, daily religious newspaper Kristeligt Dagblad reported on Thursday. ‘We have never tried anything like this before,’ Svendborg baker Gerner Pedersen said. ‘It’s very exciting. I think I will go for a baguette made out of a mixture of wheat and rye flour. That would give a good, strong taste of bread.’ Copenhagen deacon Finn Laugesen said he wished the bakers all the best. ‘But for as long as I have been responsible for the communion wafers, I’ve gone for the most neutral taste I could find,’ he said. ‘After all, the bread should symbolize the body of Jesus, and the wafer shouldn’t be getting all the attention. Just imagine if the pastor at the altar would say ‘This is the body of Jesus Christ. Would you like that with chocolate, vanilla or strawberry taste?’

Preferably low carb...or something honey roasted? I remember once getting in a minor amount of trouble when I was a teen for eating handfuls of those crackers (the uh..body of christ) for a snack, because I was mowing the church yard in 90+ degree heat, and that's the only food that was around. Tasted like stale crackers, they hadn't had the magic words said over them that transsubstantiated 'em into the 2000 year old flesh of an itinerant prophet. Yum.
The Churches in America need a Cherry Flavored / Vinegar and Bleach Douche.
There are some? Actually I find that more surprising than the rest of the nonsense in this article.
Don't feel bad Sam, I got in a wee bit of trouble myself for "spitting out the bidy of Christ" during communion. and like you said - they tasted like stale crackers without the salt with a little added mold. yech! Mama was NOT pleased.....
If you're going to be into cannibalism, then you ought to at least try to make it taste good.
I'll bet the altar boyz got Oreos.
The bakers will be baking ... what can I say? An unleavened bake-off.
Complete w/ cream filling, no doubt.
I've pointed out on various occasions that God is Popeye (I yam that I yam), and Jesus is the guy from the Slim Jim commercials. (EAT me.!) It's generally not well received. Say...what was that about mold? Ain't the "bidy of our (y'alls) Lord n Savior supposed to be incorruptible? ;)
Is that like the Holy Ghost enema advocated by Mrs. Benny Hinn? Could you do a "two-fer" on those two procedures, since the *ahem* points of ingress are in similar neighborhoods (physiologically, if not metaphorically)?
Would you like that with chocolate, vanilla or strawberry taste?’
