Christ on a crisp
Ananova ^ | 06-09-2005 | Staff

Posted on 06/09/2005 7:23:35 PM PDT by Red Badger

A Florida woman discovered the image of Jesus - on a crisp.

Rosalie Lawson was about to bite into the sour cream and onion potato chip as she watched TV when she suddenly spotted the image.

"I said to myself: "Oh my goodness"," she said. "I showed it to my husband Jerry and he was pretty amazed too."

Deeply religious Mrs Lawson, 55, whose father-in-law the Very Rev. LeRoy Lawson was the first dean of St Petersburg Cathedral in their home town, is now pondering what to do with it.

"It's sitting in a jar in the kitchen while we decide," she said. "We may sell it - I'm not really sure."

Six months ago another Florida woman who discovered an image of the Virgin Mary on her toasted cheese sandwich sold it for £15,000 on eBay.

I hate to say it, but it looks more like Jar Jar to me.

I always throw the ones with the brown spots away. Maybe, I should start checking to see if they look like anything before I do that. :)

It's only a matter of time before someone spots a Jesus-shaped semen stain.

Now I read the rest of the article about the $15,000 sandwich, now I wonder if these folks didn't just burn that into the chip themselves *rollseyes*

No doubt Jesus is having a good laugh on this one.

Look, the Guy is God Himself, so He can have a truly Heavenly sense of humor.

Look, the MSM needs no excuses whatsoever to slam Christianity, so don't worry about it.

This is light, religiously oriented humor.

"Now I read the rest of the article about the £15,000 sandwich..."
And to think that Michelangelo got less (about the equivalent of $20-23K vs. $26K for the sandwich) for 2 years' worth of work on "Pieta". Sort of puts the things in prospective, doesn't it?

I love it when people find Jesus on food products. I love the Virgin Mary on a fried tortilla, Jesus on a grilled cheese sandwich and Hello Kitty on toast. There was Jesus on the side of a garage, Jesus in the shadows of some bushes (not George). It's everywhere!

In the mid 70's a woman in Mexico cooked a tortilla and discovered a face she called Jesus in it. Looked more like the Zig-Zag Man to me.........

Anybody ever read Frank Pretti's 'The Visitation'? I have read The Visitation! I didn't like it as well as Frank Peretti's other books...especially The Oath. I loved that one. But yeah, the image of Christ is showing up everywhere!

I don't know ... I'm not convinced that God likes to be made fun of.

These people are DELUSIONAL. FEAR of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

If I ever get sainted, I want to appear on a double-stuff Oreo. Or maybe a Moon Pie.
