The catholic church did no such thing. The Catholic church wasn't even completely formed when quotes were made by Early Church fathers regarding what they called Eucharist. When do you believe the institution of the Catholic Church began?
The Roman Catholic Church didn't truly begin as its structured until later with the Roman Bishop as head.
Jesus said, this is my body (he broke bread) and this is my blood (they drank of the cup). Neither Jesus or the apostles taught you as a Christian had to observe this as a feast. That was a Jewish custom and you know how the transfer of jewish customs into Christianity worked out?
So if you choose a feast, that is your preference, as there is no condemning either. However the only part to be concerned about is the bread and the vine.
