I show that three views, together, lead to difficultiesin providing truthmakers for truths of contingent predication, such as that thebread is white. These three views are: the Catholic dogma of transubstantiation, astandard truthmaker theory, and a trope (or accident) view of properties. I presentand explain each of these three views, at each step noting their connections to thethought of St. Thomas Aquinas.
