Some one point to where it says inthe bible that you must ‘adore’ the Eucharist before you “do this in memory of me”

This is all made up ceremony. It is silly

No, it isn’t silly.

If Jesus were to walk in front of you right now, would you fall to your knees and adore him?

Well, Jesus is full present in the Holy Sacrament of the Altar. And I will fall to my knees whether you like it or not.

Woe to those who do not respect the Lord.

If I were to give you something and say that the thing I give you is not what it appears to be, would you not look?

And if I then say: "This is the body of Christ broken for you" and you believe me, wouldn't you adore your Savior?

The Protestants who question the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist have no faith in Him, and so we look silly to them. No surprise there:

the sensual man perceiveth not these things that are of the Spirit of God; for it is foolishness to him (1 Cor 2:14)

Corrected it -- for us, the consecrated Host IS the Body and blood of Jesus Christ, hence the adoration. The Adoration is to God

I assume you did not know this -- but bluntly, this is, to us, the Body of Christ, hence we adore Him as is due. you may disagree with this belief, but please note that this is worship of God.
