Thanks for the advice! Amazing, Amazon doesn't have this book.

I won't wade into this subject because the literature is far too vast
to be summed up in a series of e-mails, even on this list. There are
several hundred books that are catalogued under the subject headings
of Lord's Supper or the Eucharist. The subject includes books on
Lord's Supper in Art, Lord's Supper Anglican Communion, Lord's Supper
Baptists, Lord's Supper Bread, Lord's Supper (Canon Law)-- Oriental
Catholic churches,

There are 294 books alone on Lord's Supper Catholic Church.
I suppose if one wants something to read you might start with
 Consuming passions : the uses of cannibalism in late medieval and
 early 
modern Europe / by Merrall Llewelyn Price.
It's another expensive Routledge volume published in 2003.
(No I don't own this one.)
Bio for the author is at
http://english.okstate.edu/faculty/fac_pages/price.htm

The Table of CONTENTS for it lists these chapters:

List of Illustrations
Acknowledgments
Chapter One: The Man-Eating Body
Chapter Two: Corpus Christi: The Eucharist and Late Medieval Cultural
Identity Chapter Three: Mass Hysteria: Heresy, Witchcraft, and Host
Desecration Chapter Four: The Maternal Monstrous: Cannibalism at the
Siege of Jerusalem Chapter Five: Teratographies: Writing the American
Colonial Monster Notes Bibliography Index 

Library of Congress Subject Headings for this publication: 
Lord's Supper Catholic Church History Middle Ages, 600-1500, 
Cannibalism History To 1500, 
Lord's Supper Catholic Church History 16th century, 
Cannibalism History 16th century

It seems to cover both topics.

Hope this helps--
