Except for the parts which are clearly allegorical, as I stated in the comment you reference.

.
That would be the parables, and nothing else.

Figurative symbols like sheep, body and blood are not allegory, they are simply symbolic.

(or did you really “tie one on” the other night?)

NO,No, you said that Jesus said of the bread that “this is my body” and of the wine “this is my blood” so you evidently believe that He is literally bread with wine flowing through it because you just told us that that statement made by Jesus was literal and not allegory. You can't have it both ways.
