after they served Communion, the priest offered Holy Bread to us non Orthodox folks)?

That would be Antidoron. It is a sharing of Christian love via bread with those who did not commune.

Interesting. As best I remember, Antidoron was not offered to Non-Communicant external Attendants (such as myself) at the Antiochan Orthodox church which I attended.

I took no offense at this, of course, recognizing myself to not be an Eastern Orthodox Communicant. But perhaps customs differ from parish to parish.
