Cavanagh Altar Bread - 1 1/8" White - 1000/Container

I’m no longer Catholic but the taste of communion wafers from my childhood has haunted me. These were great.

Great cardboard for satisfying that pica need. Good value for money too.

Okay everyone. There's a reason these taste "stale" right out of the container. If they were nice and crispy they wouldn't survive shipping. Literally EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE 1000 PIECES SURVIVED. The only way you can do that is have them be slightly pliable...i.e. stale. Leave them out in the air for a few hours and they crisp up. However, if you throw them in the toaster over for like 60 seconds they come out perfectly crispy without discoloring or warping. Absolutely amazing with Nutella as a crispy, tasty, low calorie snack for those that like to keep their hands and mouth busy while watching a show or movie. If they weren't so pricey Id buy them again, but admittedly they last a long while...and I'm eating like 200 of them at a time.

Who would've thought that the simulated flesh of sky-daddy would taste so good, I joke with my Husband that "SoMeOnE aT aMaZoN pRoLlY tHrU iT iN tHeRe!?" No, I buy this, it's that heckin' good. But the ingredients and the process, is it really that much of a process, I feel I could get more product for the price.I spray'em with light oil, airfry at 375(F) for 3 - 5 mins and sprinkle with taco-meat seasoning. I call'em "Blessed Balls."

Tl;DR: they are okay and will for sure take you back to the dry memories of church. Though they were stale. I accidentally left them by an open window on an icy cold night and that made them crisp again.Not all communion wafers are the same. I remember this specific type that I got as a kid when we visited my grandparents and went to their local Catholic church. I've long since stopped going to church but every once in awhile I'll crave the wafers. These have satisfied that craving for now, but they are not the ones I use to get with Nana. I'll continue my search

Great product. Out of the jar, the wafers seemed a little chewy; however, if they are allowed to sit for 20-30 minutes, they become crisp. I'm not sure if this is by design or not. However, if you like them a little soft, they are great out of the package. If not, let them sit. They are great either way.After researching the question of crispy/not crispy, I have found that wafers such as these are baked in a humid oven so that they can be cut without causing crumbs. As a result, contrary to what I would think intuitively, the chewier ones are actually freshest! In any case, I like mine crispy, so I put them in the oven at 200 degrees Fahrenheit for a couple of minutes. They don't need to toast, just need to evaporate some moisture.

These are not bad, but def not as good as you get from the dealers in that big building with the colorful windows (idk if they look like that, where you are from)I am used to them dissolving in your mouth right away, but these don't do that.I looked online on how to spice them up a little and some say make tea sandwiches with say Ham (Def Good) or add a little Nutella.But, the best is to enjoy it with a little wine, preferably from Isreal/Middle East and from circa 32 AD. That is a perfect pairing if you ask me.

As a kid when I was involved with my church I developed an obsession with communion wafers and even wrote a letter to the Carmelite Nuns (who had produced the wafers used by our church at that time). They sent me a sweet letter with a sample of unconsecrated hosts but also sadly said I couldn't order them directly. :D Now as a grown-up I can order as many as I want from the internet!! They're perfect for when you want something slightly crunchy but airy.The fact they quickly dissolve in your mouth has also been an *epiphany* since I had major dental surgery this week. I have to stick to mostly liquids and soft foods for a little while but it's excruciating. Communion wafers (white flour in particular) are perfect for when you want some texture with instant melt-in-your-mouth properties so as not to destroy the integrity of a healing gum.
