Bread

I love bread. It goes with any meal. Tried the low-carb diet once, and giving up bread was brutal. Italian bread with spaghetti A good piece of Texas toast with a steak A biscuit with fried chicken For the people living in Jesus' day, bread was not just a filler for a meal with all other kinds of food. Bread was a staple. They might get a few fish or a small bit of other meat, but bread was the core of the meal. No bread meant starvation. So, when Jesus told these people, "I am the Bread of Life," He was sharing a bold and deep truth about Himself.
