The Catholic Church believes that the presence of Jesus in the Eucharist is not a symbol, but it is actually Jesus himself. He is hidden in the form of bread so he can be with us. On the Last Supper, he did say "This is my body, which will be given up for you...This is my blood, which will be given up for you. Do this in remembrance of me."
