"take and eat of this, THIS IS MY BODY, and Take and drink, THIS IS MY BLOOD"

Then why isn't that done, instead of parading it (the little tiny wafer which is supposed to contain the complete Jesus Christ) around in a sunburst so it can be worshiped? Doesn't the cracker substance that it actually is get stale?

Oh we do indeed consume the Body and Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Christ in the Eucharist. The Host is removed from the monstrance immediately after the ceremony or period of adoration designated and either consumed by the priest or returned to the Tabernacle.
