Superficially, you can make a lot of comparisons between the LDS church and other denominations. I usually find most protestant or restorationist christians comparing us to Catholics, oddly enough.
The sacrament tokens (bread and water/wine) are symbolic, yes, but the ritual itself has a much deeper meaning. If you want to know what it means to us, you can read verses 8-10 in
Mosiah 18
