About the Museum
The Museum of Hoaxes is dedicated to promoting knowledge about hoaxes. (Click here for opening hours, etc.) On our blog we post about dubious- sounding claims, and whatever else strikes our fancy. The site is also home to the Hoaxipedia (the museum's online encyclopedia of hoaxes), the Hoax Forum, and the Top 100 April Fools' Day Hoaxes.
The museum was created in 1997 by Alex Boese. He's assisted by a staff of deputy curators and docents. Alex is the author of three books, most recently Elephants on Acid: And Other Bizarre Experiments (which has nothing to do with hoaxes). Check out the list of the Top 20 Most Bizarre Experiments of All Time for a preview.

Toast Appears on Jesus Christ
Status: Pareidolia
John Ordover sent this in. He was looking at a picture of Jesus (or rather, an artist's interpretation of what Jesus might have looked like) when he realized a piece of toast had miraculously appeared on it. I think this must be a message from John's toaster! But can we be sure that actually is a piece of toast? It kinda looks like a granola bar to me.Posted By: Alex | Date: Sun Mar 30, 2008 | Permalink |

Posted by April in Foolsvile on Sun Mar 30, 2008 at 09:48 PMWow, it took me a while, but now that I've seen it, I can't NOT see it - Know what I mean?
Freaky.

Clearly, Toast is trying to tell us The End Is Near.
Posted by Cranky Media Guy on Mon Mar 31, 2008 at 12:10 AMWhere's the image?
Posted by Tonio in Puerto Rico on Mon Mar 31, 2008 at 04:05 AMUmmmm, so whats with the weird distored image area around the "toast" ?
And it looks like a crouton. Bread is almost never prefectly that square.

Amazing coincidence.
The other day I was looking at a picture of Moses, and an image of some Matzohs appeared just above the horns.

My bread never looks that perfect. (mainly due to kids being less than careful with the package) I am going to say that this is clearly 'shopped. No way a piece of toast can be that perfectly square, and that perfectly toasted. My toast ALWAYS ends up half toasted and half untoasted.
And, OMG, is the toast SMILING at me??? I may be delusional.

I think I see Jesus IN the toast.

But if you look really close, you can see an image of the toast in the image of Jesus in the image of toast in the image of Jesus...

more like John ONDORE I AM RITE GUYS
Posted by ased on Mon Mar 31, 2008 at 01:43 PMClearly, this image is saying that unless you belive, you're toast. Unless you can butter God up, you'll be in a jam.
Posted by Christopher Cole in Tucson, AZ on Mon Mar 31, 2008 at 02:01 PMBased on the artist's interpretation of The Prophet Jesus, I'd say it's a pretty sure bet that the toast is made from White Bread. Should've looked more like pumpernickel (or "pan por nicol" for you purists).
Posted by Hairy Houdini on Mon Mar 31, 2008 at 02:04 PMno, no, not toast. It's a dog biscuit--as in omidog!
Is it telling us to "stay" or "heel" or...?

I think this is a fake photograph, yes? If you look very close, there are the sources of light on "Jesus" from the backs and the front, but the toast has only the light from the upper right, so the shadows do not make the match, okay? And you thought Raoul did not have it right from the get-up-and-go, admit this, damn you. Oh, I am sorry Jesus... Ha ha ha, I am only doing the April joke for the fools, so do not consign my soul to everlasting damnation, okay Jdog? Rrrraoul
Posted by Raoul on Mon Mar 31, 2008 at 09:07 PMI believe this may be a joke. I have yet to find the toast, and am worried that if i turn the sound up a scary face will scream at me.
Nice try.
Posted by April in Foolsvile on Tue Apr 01, 2008 at 12:53 AMNice try.
