I heard from one of my rabbis that Rav Tzvi Yehuda would pick up two
rugalachim (what do you call that? - mizonot mishneh?) at a kiddush.

I suppose at a kiddush it is difficult, logistically, to get the bread
handed out to everyone at a kiddush. And then you have to
bentsch...too much tzurus and shlepping if you ask me.
