My parent's church has long been using regular bread. Well, not Wonder Bread, although that would be kind of funny, since if you mash it up it tastes rather like the flavorless communion wafers, but bread baked by a parisioner, for decades now.
I'm surprised the Danish Church hasn't been using Danishes. Hee-hee.
(Sorry; it was funny in 3rd grade -- not now. Apologies all around.)
Seriously, Any kind of bread can be used, so long as it's wheat-based. I'm wondering what's the problem? - unless they've got some old fogeys who don't like change.
Nope; gotta be wheat. There's a decent story about people with problems with this here: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/08/18/national/main636772.shtml
There's always the Blood, of course. Skip the Body entirely.
"Drink of this orange juice for it is my ... plasma! Eat of these Rice Krispies for they are my ... corpuscles! Eat of this toast, for it is my ... favorite!"
That's closer to the Eddie Izzard version ... ("And don't call me Jeezie Chreezie!")
