When questioned by Jewish leaders and skeptics in John Chapter 6, Jesus calls himself what phrase that incorporates the word "bread"?

Calling himself the "bread of life" seems like an odd term, but Jesus compares himself to the bread - or manna - that fell every morning in the wilderness to feed the Israelites. That bread comes from heaven (as does Jesus) and that bread satisfies their hunger (as does Jesus). The bread then becomes the perfect metaphor for what communion will soon be all about.
