According to O'Malley, the first batch of new wafers will be made available in three flavors: chocolate, cinnamon, and Ritz. The plan is to taste test the varieties at some of the more tolerable parishes in the region, like throughout South Boston, and then expand the more successful kinds into other dioceses. "Wow, Jesus never tasted so good," said 47-year-old Darren St. Clair, one of a dozen to participate in a focus group that helped to select the initial flavor offerings. "The only problem I see is that this could extend Mass when everybody starts going back for a second helping of the Lord."

In bad taste all round. (The flavoring would render the matter invalid—but you did get me to click the link.)

I could actually see this happening at the chapel at Notre Dame—or maybe Georgetown.

Careful! There is no satire so outlandish and bizarre that it will not be taken seriously by a goodly number of readers.

Bad-taste satire and therefore non-humorous.
A waste of FR space and freepers' time.

This would be funny if stuff like this didn't actually happen.
A few years ago, my diocesan newspaper ran an article on how the kids in one parish baked the communion "bread". They gave their "bread" recipe, which made something between a graham cracker and a gingersnap, but definitely was not valid matter for communion.
That was right after our new bishop had taken over. I think there were some memoranda and telephone calls after that. I haven't heard any more about graham-cracker communion "bread" since.

Sorry...this one missed the mark. (And, no, I get the point was not as much to mock Catholic belief on transubstantiation as to mock AMCHURCH™ on their political correctness (polyunsaturated fat and all))
