communion wafer
Sacred unleavened disc
A communion wafer is a thin, unleavened disc of bread used in Christian Eucharist services, representing or becoming (depending on doctrine) the body of Christ.
Wafers are typically round, white, and nearly flavorless, designed to dissolve quickly on the tongue: The priest placed the communion wafer in each parishioner's hand.
