***They sell for 80-500 euros, depending on the size of the host, the prominence of the church from which they were stolen, and who consecrated them.”

“The highest price is placed on those that are consecrated in the churches of Rome, above all those closest to the Vatican.***

How does one know if a consecrated host is from a particular church or consecraated by a particular priest? You certainly should not trust a follower of the Father of Lies to tell the truth about where he got it and who consecrated it.

As a non-Catholic I ask: Is there a distinctive mark placed upon the Host identifying it?

"You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that -- and shudder." Jas.2:19. I believe the Lord will use this vile profaning of what is sacred for His own purposes.

Nope, one could make a tidy profit by grabbing a box of unconsecrated hosts and selling them.

No distinctive marks and superficially at least, no way to tell if a host is consecrated.

However, ex-Satanists and priests who are familiar with Satanic cults claim that those deeply immersed in Satanism, especially Satanic priests, can pick a consecrated host among a group of non-consecrated ones.

These would be men (and possibly women) who have devoted their entire lives to the practice of black magic and are totally in the service of Satan. As opposed to teenagers listening to heavy metal music.

Agreed. There is no honor among thieves.

As a Catholic I ask: Why don’t these satanic cults use the crackers from Protestant services?

No, you cannot tell a consecrated host from an unconsecrated host. They are only distinguished by where and how they are stored.
