Virgin Mary Pretzel
image The latest 'spawn-of-Virgin-Mary-Grilled-Cheese-Sandwich' on eBay is the Virgin Mary with Baby Jesus Pretzel. This is a pretzel that may, if you're of the right frame of mind, look kind of like a Picasso-style rendition of the Virgin Mary holding the Baby Jesus. According to the description: "This totally unique and spiritual item was found by a 12 year old girl.  She was eating "Rold Gold" Honey Mustard flavored tiny twist pretzels, when she noticed the Virgin Mother holding Baby Jesus.  We all had a feeling of warmth and spirituality when holding the pretzel." The salty pretzel has been receiving news coverage, and bidding on it has already passed $1,000 with three days to go.

Search on Ebay "virgin mary potato".

I'd put links here, but ebay links don't seem to work...

All we need now is the virgin mary stool. And not the one with the legs.

This must be a new trend. Have you seen the newest one? It's a pretzel in the shape of someone praying for the Pope. Check it out:

just type in item # 6161280088 in the search box, it'll come up. It's rather silly.

Jesus on a Tortilla Chip is on sale on eBay RIGHT NOW (March 22, 2006). This one is NOT A HOAX. It gave me chills!

It looks like a defectively made pretzel that accidently got folded over itself in the manufacturing process. For $150 you can clothe, feed, educatate, and house a child in Uganda for an entire YEAR. Some people just have waaaayyyy too much discretionary income.
