A chef had his house warming party on television and someone gave him a loaf of bread meaning he'll never go hungry, and I think the gave him a little sugar, and there was something else. Can someone tell me these gifts and their meanings? I would like to do this at my friends house warming party.

It's like a blessing, it's something like this...
Bread...that this house may never know hunger.
Salt...that life may always have flavor.
Wine...that life will always be sweet and joyful.
Here's some more I found...
Bread... You will never go hungry
Broom...Sweep away the evil; Your house will always be clean
Candle... You will always have light
Coin... Bring good fortune for the year
Honey... Represents the sweetness of life
Olive Oil... Health, Light and believe it or not, keep your husband faithful
Plant...You will always have life
Rice... Sign of fertility
Salt... Represents life's tears; You can also place a pinch of salt at the threshold of each door and window for good luck; Mend all wounds
Wine... Never go thirsty; Your home brings you happiness and joy
Wood Your life/home will always have stability, harmony and peace
Nice that you want to do this for a friend! Good luck and have fun!

rice, that there will always be food in the house
bread, for friends to share with
salt: for spice in your lives
sugar: sweetness in even the worst of times
candles: so you will always find your way home
wine: so you always have a reason to celebrate
