Blessed are the Cheese Makers
March 21, 2008That's a line from a Monty Python movie, of course. I mean, I'm not saying that cheese makers are NOT blessed; I'm sure some of them are very nice people and devout and deserving of a good blessing.
I thought of that line when I read this article which I'm terribly disappointed that no one sent me before I saw it. "Snack or holy symbol?" Well I guess it's only been online for an hour, but I know there are a few Alert Readers in Houston that may have heard about this before it broke on the web.
Basically, if you want the short version instead of reading the article, youth paster Steve Cragg of Memorial Drive United Methodist found a Cheeto that looks like Jesus praying. Well he says that. I'm not convinced it looks like that. You can watch the video here.
That's it. I mean, that's the short version. I could go on to explain that they are calling the Cheeto Jesus "Cheesus," which is humorous but hopefully not sacrilegious. The youth paster is quoted as saying that God doesn't make Cheetos in the shape of Jesus - but I'm not so sure. I'd like to think that somehow - for whatever miraculous reason - God is messing around with our packaged snack food. But who can say?

I'd tape myself eating it, then post the vid on YouTube.
