Jesus Christ on a potato chip
This is from the St. Petersburg (Fla) Times. Clearly we live in an age of miracles and wonders.

http://www.sptimes.com/2005/06/08/Neighborhoodtimes/An_image_of_Jesus__Al.shtml

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...

She has shown photos of the chip to fellow churchgoers and to family members, all of whom have been amazed at the resemblance...

She knows about the GoldenPalace online casino, which spent $28,000 for a 10-year-old grilled cheese sandwich that reportedly bears the image of the Virgin Mary; $10,600 for the pretzel that looks like the Virgin Mary cradling the infant Jesus; and $232.50 for the chicken breast that resembles the visage of the late Pope John Paul II...

"How do you even say, "Guess what? I have a potato chip that looks like Jesus. Do you want to buy it?' I don't know if we're going to try and sell it or what yet."

It is a burnt potato chip. Get over it.

3. Don't forget the face of Jesus
in the plate of spaghetti. Pretty soon we can put together a Jesus buffet.
