Manna

A grain-like food God provided for the Israelites while they wandered in the wilderness. The name manna means “What is it?” because that is the question the people asked when they first saw it. In a miraculous way, manna appeared fresh every night on the ground so the people could gather it in the morning. They could use it in many ways. They could grind it up and make cakes, or they could boil it. The Bible says it looked like white seeds or flakes and tasted like wafers made with honey.
