‘The Microsoft of Altar Bread’

Read a story in the Boston Globe about the Cavanagh family, which produces 80% of the (manufactured) communion wafers sold in the U.S.:

“The company’s manufacturing floor is a humming assembly line of weird, Willie Wonka-like machines. Contraptions custom-built by the Cavanaghs will thud, click sharply, and whoosh at odd intervals, like the percussion section of a highly experimental jazz band.
 
This effort goes to make one of the most revered products in the world, which faithful members of the Catholic Church believe will become the body of Jesus Christ.”

[Insert liturgy-bread pun here.]
