When Christ broke bread, He instructed us that when we do it, to do it im memory of Him. So also when we drink wine. The Bread symbolizes His Body sacrificed for our sins, provided we accept this free gift. The wine represents His Blood, the true life is in the blood, the Blood of the Lamb of God.
When we share the Word of God we are breaking the Bread from heaven and sharing it with others imparting the life from His Blood to all who will receive It. Just as Jesus shared His bread and wine for all.
He is the Bread from heaven born in "The House of Bread," for Bethlehem does translate completely as the house of Bread.
He does not expect people to become cannibals, He is teaching us to share the Bread and the Blood, His teaching and HIs Life. Another important aspect of breaking bread and sharing the wine is living the Word and Living the Life given to each of us by His awesome sacrificial gift to all who will receive It, Salvation.
