Miracle M&M
I, like everyone else, should stop posting about these miracle foods that keep appearing on eBay. It's only encouraging their proliferation. But I just can't stop myself. So here's the latest one: A Miracle M&M. The seller says:Purchasing a handful of M&M from vending machine, I came across this very special M&M that I believe to be a likeness of Jesus with a crown on his head. This has been a life changing event for me. I am hoping that all of you see what I see.

To me, it looks like a skull without a jaw wearing a wig that needs combing. Seeing it certainly has changed my life.

I don't see it at all.
I wholeheartedly agree with one of the people who wrote in a question, saying the seller should encourage the bidders to donate their money to charities rather than waste it on a freakin' M&M. All the seller really had to say was "I don't know how to respond to this".

It doesn't even look like an M&M.

I'd eat the M&M. Instead trying to sell it.

I got that beat by a mile! I have a potato chiip that looks like the word 'of' mentioned on page 52 of 'Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone' !

The mental state of the seller can be easily deduced by two clear things:
1: S/he sees religious figures in food.
2: Uses repeat punctuation marks. There were 18 exclaimation points in the headline. This is a known sign of a sick mind.

3000 dollars for an M&M?!?!?!?! (How's that for repeat punctuation?)
I need to start eating M&Ms;.

Yeah, I see what you see-- a misshapen piece of candy that somebody has done a bad job of faking a face on.
Maybe it's life-changing for you, but don't quit your day job.

Once again, I'm wondering if these sellers ever manage to collect on these silly bids.
I also wonder, if you can really sell a piece of food with a blurry face on it for $3,000, or even for $3, why there aren't a lot of factories out there mass-producing Jesus & Mary Snack Foods. Hmm, do you suppose I could copyright that idea?

I can't believe it, 3500$ for an M&M, amazing.
I do however understand the seller, an exelent way of making money of idiots. (Am I allowed to say idiots here, maybe "otherwice intelectually abled" is more correct)
Well, I'm going to do my best to find some jesus in my soup now.
Anyway, the seller did agree with the person Q`ing about not seeing this, so he's all clear, he's even admitted to not seeing jesus.
Q: Hi there. I'm not a religious person and I don't really see Jesus in your m&m.
A: Thank You Jennifer and I agree with you.
But then again it might be me missing some vital parts of the question, looks fun tho...

Looks more like the Elephant Man to me.

I happened to see the seller of the alleged "miracle" M&M on the news the other night. If I remember correctly, she said that someone else said to her that the "picture" looked like Jesus and suggested that maybe she should sell it on eBay. She seemed to be amused by the whole thing so I wouldn't say, based on what I saw, that she was a religious nut. She seemed to be just kind of enjoying her 15 minutes of dubious fame.

It's been pulled now.
Hmm....I wonder how difficult it is to tip-ex a face on a sweetie, anyways....

These are the kinds of things that make me lose hope in mankind.
