1. What Is Bread?

2. Bread is Community, Bread is Life
KatarzynaGorskawrites:
• We have a wonderful tradition in my family: BREAD for Afternoon
Tea. The Afternoon Tea is a small snack eaten between 3pm and
5pm. The custom of Afternoon Tea originated in England in the
1840s. In my family, we usually drink green tea with lemon and
honey. Afternoon Tea is accompanied by luxury ingredient
SANDWICHES – cucumber, cherry tomatoes, egg, watercress, fish
paste, ham and smoked salmon. The beautiful tradition of
Afternoon Tea with BREAD as the main component of the meal is a
great opportunity to create very interesting conversations and keep
my family close together.
• Family for me is the nourishment that sustains life.
• Bread symbolizes family for me. BREAD IS LIFE.

3. Bread is a Sign of Unity and Solidarity
Liana Tovar writes:
• Most of Colombian people are Catholic and bread is
one of the most important signs in the celebration of
the Mass
• Bread becomes the sign of unity and solidarity
• A piece of bread with coffee is the breakfast of many
people, and can be the only meal of the day.

4. Bread is the Energy that Allows Us To
Do What We Love
Xiaoyu Chen writes:
• What are we all most passionate about??
• What is the “bread” that allows us to do what
we love?

5. Bread is the Source of Salvation
Marie Highby writes:
• There’s actually a pretty well-known example of bread
being reframed in the Christian religion. The question is
“What must I do to be saved?” and the answer is “Drink
of my cup and eat of my bread.”
• So, in the Christian religion, bread gets reframed as the
source of salvation and therefore it can be regarded as
more valuable than anything else.
