POTATO CHIP LOOKS LIKE JESUS!! - Woman Not Sure What To Do With It

[matcom]

<snip>

ST. PETERSBURG - Rosalie and Jerry Lawson have an eye for collectibles. Their home in Shore Acres is filled with family heirlooms, holiday displays, Gone with the Wind memorabilia, reproductions of Chrysler's PT Cruiser.

They're no strangers to religious iconography. The couple are active Episcopalians - Jerry Lawson's father, the Very Rev. LeRoy Lawson, was the first dean of St. Peter's Cathedral.

One Valentine's Day, her brother found a heart-shaped potato chip, but no one in the family had ever seen what emerged from a bag of Lay's sour cream and onion potato chips a couple of weeks ago: an oval measuring roughly 11/2 inches in diameter, in which Rosalie Lawson saw the image of Jesus Christ.

"I shop at Publix at Northeast Shopping Center," she said. The store recently had a buy-one, get-one-free deal on the chips, and she bought a couple of packages for the Memorial Day weekend.

One night, while watching television, she said, she was munching away and pulled a chip from an 11-ounce bag.

"With things in food these days," she said, she's careful to look at most comestibles.

"I was down there by myself" in the TV room, she said. "I said, "Jerry, you've got to see this potato chip.'

"He said, "Yeah.' You know how guys are," she said.

Then, Rosalie Lawson said, her husband suggested, "Well, we can't eat that."

20. I'm trying really hard...

My eyes hurt, I'm trying so hard. But I just don't see it. :shrug: To me, it looks more like an old time movie camera than Jesus.

Some people need to get lives, I think.

[izzie]

21. Do you see things in clouds? They do look like things at times

I can not see why these people see JC or Mary in any stain on any thing. But then I grew up in Churches that put weathervanes on their churches. And one I knew of put a bottle on it's steeple as that is where they got the money, from a man who drank. What is important is what gets you I guess.

[Misunderestimator]

[sinkingfeeling]

27. How is this nonsense news? Why do papers print this crap?

[jswordy]

30. It is printed as human interest, which is news by definition.

[Liberal Veteran]

28. Publicize and then sell for big $$$ on e-bay

to some sucker who will believe Jesus has nothing better to do than show up on a deep-fried chip.

[Deja Q]

29. Looks more like that alien seen in The X-Files:

Whoops, wrong show. That's okay!

[seemunkee]

31. Out of the Gene Pool

This strip has been running a series about a potato chip that looks like a ball player and helping to win games.
