Yes the bread and wine is blessed by the vicar.
On the altar.
The bread. We are told that he took the cup "after supper" and blessed it.
The bread that has been blessed, represents Christ's body. The wine, that has also been blessed, represents his blood.
He blessed Abraham and also gave him bread and wine (Genesis 14).
During the Last Supper, Christ broke bread, and blessed the bread and wine which he shared with His disciples. He said, "this is My Body and Blood, do this in remembrance of Me."
Christ broke bread and blessed the bread and wine at The Last Supper. He told the Disciples, "Do this in Memory of Me." This was the night before he died.
The last meal Jesus spent with his Apostles is called the Last Supper, consisting of only bread and wine. Jesus said a blessing, saying that the bread was the bread of life, and the wine was Jesus' blood. If you go to a Catholic mass, there will be something called a communion, where you take the blessed bread and wine and drink it.
Some traditional pairings for wine and bread include red wine with crusty bread, white wine with soft bread, and sparkling wine with breadsticks.
"Kiddush" is not a foodstuff, it is an action. The word literally means "hallowing". Orthodox Jews perform Kiddush when Shabbat begins (Friday evening), which involves the blessing of candles, wine, bread, and God's love for the Jewish people. Following that they drink some of the blessed wine and blessed bread and this leads into a Shabbat meal that takes up much of the rest of the night.
Nobody gets "bread and wine" in the Catholic Church. In a Latin rite church you receive Holy Communion when you are around 7 years of age, in the Eastern rites, usually when you are baptized as an infant. But, please, these are NOT "bread and wine", they only have the appearance of bread and wine, after consecration, they are the Body and Blood of Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ - read the second half of the sixth chapter of St. John's Gospel (John 6:22-59).
First off, it is not wine and bread. It has been changed and is the body of Christ. That is probably what is restricting you from receiving communion. The Catholic and Orthodox believe that it had been transfigured, even though it doesn't change form, the bread and wine change in essence. To receive the Eucharist at a Catholic Church, you yourself need to become Catholic and believe in the Transfiguration
The Eucharist prayer normally refers to the Canon of the Mass. This is the prayer said by the priest at the altar in which he adores God, implores his help for all of humanity, asks the saints for their intercession, invokes the Holy Spirit, and consecrates - changes - the bread and wine into the Body and Blood or Our Blessed Lord. After the consecration, the "accidents" remain - i.e. the appearance of bread and wine; but the "substance" has changed so that where before there was bread and wine, now all that remains is the Body and Blood of Our Blessed Lord.
