And it isn't kosher.
Weirdly enough it's fine to eat if you're catholic assuming they haven't been blessed
I’d still eat the whole tray and sleep like a baby.
A friend of mine grew near a Catholic monastery which fabricated wafers. The nuns gave the offcuts to the children, and they ate them with Nutella.
The missing "up" there makes me think that your friend is, in fact, a tree near a monastery, and somehow, through the power of friendship, you are able to speak with this tree, and he tells you stories of the olden days when the children would play and the nuns were kind, but firm.
I prefer your version, it's now the headcanon of my and my friend's lives.
I really want to write this as a children's story. If your friend and you want to send stories I'll do it. Lol
Your friend is a dryad!
Are you sure they were actual Jeez-Its and not just styrofoam?
Is it weird that I kinda want to make this now? It seems like it would be good lol I'm not a Catholic though so I'm not sure where I would get these communion wafers
You can buy em online. Communion wafers. They're not considered "hosts" or sacred until after they're consecrated. But I don't know if this would actually work or not. You're not supposed to chew them, but let them dissolve. As such, I'd imagine when you add the melted marshmallow they would just sort of turn into a blob of sugary bread. They're like if potato chips tasted of nothing, and had the same reaction to moisture as Styrofoam does to gasoline
they would just sort of turn into a blob of sugary bread
You're making this idea seem better and better now 🤤
If you do it, please report back. I'm curious
As someone who’s eaten too many communion wafers: it would probably not be good. They’re so bland that it would be too sweet and they don’t have a strong enough structure to hold up to molten marshmallows, imo.
You can buy communion wafers in bulk in most catholic bookstores, along with other cool stuff.
Everyone who wants to taste these: look up Oblaten at a baking supply store near you, they’re basically 20-30 cm diameter communion wafers, and they come in much smaller quantities than you’ll find at seminary stores. You probably won’t want to keep eating them, so it’s better to have to throw out five big ones than 499 small ones.
...or you could just slice off a thin piece of styrofoam and shove it into your mouth. Same taste and texture!
We're trying to get off oil and you expect us to shove petroleum products in our mouths. SMH.
Hmmm... For a sustainable alternative press some very fine paper pulp into a cracker-like shape, let it dry, then shove it into your mouth.
As an alternative you could just take a bite out of a cereal box, making sure that the inside-the-box side of the cardboard is what hits your tongue first 👍
Oblaten are a little difficult to get in a lot of places that don’t use them regularly like the US. I’ve only ever seen them once at a specialty store and that was only for the holidays where people might make Lebkuchen.
More pixels. Less blur.
I've never had those Catholic crackers. Are they any good?
Imagine chewing on a thin slice of Styrofoam.
You’d think they would taste better after they’re magically transformed into Jesus meat.
Turns out that bastard was made of microplastics.
Thats it ^
They’re pretty bland. Kinda melt-in-your-mouth. You can get them from a Catholic supply store, or you can order them online, if you want to try them out. They’ll sell them to anyone, they only care about limiting who eats them after they’ve been consecrated during mass.
Sounds to me like I need to burgle mass and eat some Jesus on the down-low then.
If you've been baptized in any trinitarian tradition you can partake in an Episcopal Eucharist celebration, and we use the same absolutely tasteless wafers. I so envy the Orthodox and their leavened breads.
I didn’t grow up in a place where Christianity was the norm, so nope, never baptized. I’ll just pirate some Jesus, that’s what he’d want.
You wouldn't download God incarnate
Unethical life pro tip, depending on whether respecting others' religious traditions is part of your ethics: no mass I've ever been to has checked identity before giving out communion. If you've got an hour to burn for a free tasteless chip and a sip of wine and backwash, just walk in with mild confidence, mimic others, and mumble along with the prayers, and people will probably just assume you usually go to mass at another time or are traveling. There's no Eucharist police that's going to tackle you halfway down the aisle and throw you in an inquisition dungeon because your papers don't check out
I’ve been told they’re Spanish?
They taste like forgiveness
Nor I, but I'm told they're about as bland as you can imagine.
They're almost cardboard-y tasting - I would think it'd be totally not worth it.
They're pretty addictive, but solely because of the texture. Crispy yet melty. The taste is almost non-existent though.
You can buy bags of communion wafer scraps for cheap here. Well, they used to be actual scraps, but nowadays you get full uncut wafer rectangles in the bag so I think they just produce them on purpose.
No, they stick to the roof of your mouth and taste like cardboard.
I'd probably like it. Those wafers are fun. Tasteless, but the texture is the same as those vanilla wafer cookies. With marshmallow fluff, it would actually taste good, too.
You can do it with potato chips too. Mix through some milk chocolate chips and its good, very weird but good.
This one made me chuckle. Great 💩
