the church wafer thing
my family was religious but at the same time not really years ago. i don't really know how to explain it? HAHA since i took my antidepressants, i was somehow able to remember a childhood memory that wasn't so bad but was still kind of odd. as a child, my parents would sometimes go to some kind of church store in the mall and buy me the communion bread/wafer thing as a snack.
y'know, this thing.

i don't know why but hey, that shit was crunchy and little me loved it. i kinda remember dunking it in soda (to be specific, i think it was sprite?) 'cause i was mimicking the part with the wine- whatever i haven't been to church ever since i graduated high school. the church in the philippines felt like an oven plus my old all girls catholic school made me fuckin hate the entire process 'cause the people who taught us were toxicaly strict thus making every student mentally unstable. but that's a whole other story for another blog.
anyway, back to the story at hand! my parents bought it for me one day so we could eat it in the cinema. (i'm not sure how it works in y'alls country but in mine, we can bring outside food in the movies) it just happened that my uncle that's a pastor was in the country for a visit, he lives with the rest of my relatives in the US. long story, giant family. so he came along with us to the movie. my dad and i kept eating the bread in front of my uncle pastor, my dad told me to eat it slowly so uncle wouldn't notice. pretty sure uncle did though. mom didn't want any part of it 'cause she was right next to him. so pretty much we ate the bread that's used for religious things next to a incredibly religious person.
bonus: i also remember my uncle pastor buying me a chibi sebastian (kuroshitsuji/black butler) plushie from the US even though he knew sebastian's a demon. i still have the plushie and i'd take a picture but my tiny legs and arms can't reach up my old anime collection shelf. found a picture of it on google though

i think i remember mixing the cheese popcorn and the church wafer thing in the movies but i can't remember what it tasted like HAHAHA i heard it's good when you eat it like a nacho with melted cheese and beef!! and i found this on the wiki, it's just plain bread like i said. "The hostia or sacramental bread may be made out of only four ingredients: fine (white) wheat flour, pure water, yeast, and salt."
i used to think these were supposed to be thin slices of paper. then once i actually ate one i started dozing off mid-mass fantasizing about eating these wafers like doritos lol what are these even made out of, anyway? i remember them being kinda tasteless so i could never begin to guess what they were supposed to be :/
