I almost posted a link to that story the other day. Simply pathetic. The image of the Virgin Mary in a grilled cheese sandwich? I begin to despair for the future of the human race. If you look at the image, it does look like a human face. But why do people automatically assume it's the Virgin Mary? It could be anybody. It could be an image of Eva Braun's face in that grilled cheese sandwich for all anybody knows. Or nobody's face. Maybe we should grill up a thousand more grilled cheese sandwiches and see what other interesting images we can come up with. Some people simply have too much time on their hands.

The image looks to be holding a child... if you really look. I think I need to make a bunch of grilled cheeses and some French toast and photo them. I hope to get either a dead beatle... or with any luck... Elvis!

Ohhh, how about princess Di?! That has to be worth some cake.

Who do you want most on your fried bread?

The other day the newspaper had a picture of a fish stick that had been overcooked to the point of partly burning. The dark-over-light pattern looked like a face. At first the owner thought it looked like a generic Caucasian rock star, but then he decided it was Jesus.

By the way, there used to be a "Name of Jesus Brake Relining" business in my state.

I was going to say the same thing in my post. I had it all typed out, but then substituted "Eva Braun" at the last second. It must be true then. 😉

This is probably a manufactured face, not a random one. It could be done by simply putting some sort of antifungal treatment on the bread...making a negative picture.

The time has come for a confession: if a forensic test of the bite out of the lower left corner of the sandwich were to be performed, it would be found that the bite exactly matches my dental pattern. Yes, that's right: it was my grilled cheese sandwich, and there is quite a horrific story behind it. I have an essay to write tonight, so i can't fill you in on all the details right now. I will say though that the image is NOT that of the virgin Mary. There were some who said at the time that it is an exact likeness of the young woman who was tortured and killed some fifity years earlier in the house in which the sandwich was prepared, but this was later shown to be untrue. More later...
