Oblaten are a little difficult to get in a lot of places that don’t use them regularly like the US. I’ve only ever seen them once at a specialty store and that was only for the holidays where people might make Lebkuchen.

Everyone who wants to taste these: look up Oblaten at a baking supply store near you, they’re basically 20-30 cm diameter communion wafers, and they come in much smaller quantities than you’ll find at seminary stores. You probably won’t want to keep eating them, so it’s better to have to throw out five big ones than 499 small ones.

…or you could just slice off a thin piece of styrofoam and shove it into your mouth. Same taste and texture!

We’re trying to get off oil and you expect us to shove petroleum products in our mouths. SMH.

Hmmm… For a sustainable alternative press some very fine paper pulp into a cracker-like shape, let it dry, then shove it into your mouth.
As an alternative you could just take a bite out of a cereal box, making sure that the inside-the-box side of the cardboard is what hits your tongue first 👍
