Who Do You See?

Published 11/24/04

OK, so the Virgin Mary Grilled Cheese Sandwich fetches 28 grand from some idiot (actually an online casino). Can you name 10 charities that could have used the money more?

Huckster Diana Duyser of Florida told people that the image of the Virgin Mary was visible in the once-bitten sandwich (below).

Take a look. There certainly is what appears to be a face there — although two dots and a coupla lines can have the appearance of a face.

:-)

But what on earth makes people think it’s the Virgin Mary? Seriously — there’s none of the traditional cloak and child that you usually see with Mary. There’s nothing at all to indicate that the “face” is that of Mary, or of Julia Roberts, or of my mother. It’s a vague face.

(And I’m not touching on the fact that I would think it’s incredibly insulting to imply that God would somehow put Mary’s face on a grilled cheese sandwich.)
