Lmfao does the Catholic Church just go absolutely horrible on everything?

I grew up in the ELCA and we had homemade fresh baked bread every communion. It was amazing. The wine was less so so I always took grape juice (even had an old lady say “you can have the wine, the grape juice is for recovering alcoholics.” I responded with, at 13, “I am a recovering alcoholic.” The look on her face was priceless)
