That would have to be a hell of a job. Sitting there all day stamping out the body of Christ, from a ball of flour and water.
I mean, really… that sort of puts things in perspective a bit, doesn’t it? Some mimimum-wage worker mixing up the same ingredients as Wonder Bread, down the street, baking it in an industrial oven, then stamping out the shape on a conveyer belt…
Not that I ever put any stock in Communion anyway, but that sort of takes the mysticism out of the Jesus crackers, doesn’t it?
Somehow I can also picture those guys in the breakroom. You know they forget their lunch sometimes, and instead just subsist on a bowl of Jesus crackers, with some lefover salsa in the fridge.
It’s sad, because you know it’s true…
