KINGSTON, Ontario - An eastern Ontario man is hoping to make a bit of money by auctioning a fish stick he says looks like Jesus.
Fred Whan, who has kept the fish stick in his freezer since burning it at dinner a year ago, decided Tuesday that it was time to thaw it out so he could sell it on eBay.
A Florida woman recently sold a decade-old grilled cheese sandwich with the toasty visage of what's purported to be the Virgin Mary for $28,000, according to the eBay Web site. advertisement
Whan said he made the discovery while cooking dinner for his kids and several other children he was baby-sitting.
"I burned a few fish sticks, and I said, 'Who wants a fish stick?' and no one wanted them because they were burnt, so I thought I'd better give them to the dogs," he said Tuesday.
When he flipped over one of the pieces of fish to remove it from the pan, it seemed the face of a man was staring up at him.
"I said, 'That looks like a rock singer,' and then my son goes, 'It looks like Jesus,' and I said, 'Well, it does, yeah,' " he said."

Seeing as they're from Ontario, I wouldn't be surprised.

Relivency?
Fakes will start appearing soon - I could make a mary-toast easily. Just cut the shape from reflective foil, cover the toast and insert in toaster.

more subtlety is required than that...
you would have to make the equivalent of shading with variable sized holes on the foil
it would indeed be a pain.

Yeah, I can see it now. Jesus is hanging out in heaven with his dad. They look down and see Iraq, Darfur, Afghanistan, Jerusalem, Chechnya and the rest of the world's problems.
And God says, "You know, son... I think everything will be all right if the humans find you in the frozen food section. Your mom is going to be a cheese sandwich."

The end of the world is near!  :fishstick: If I were Jesus I would definitely consider appearing in fish sticks! But only with the firm agreement that the Virgin Mary’s face would appear in a side of tarter sauce! Yep! So, who would Jesus bomb? That's what I'd ask the fish stick!

If you had both the Virgin Mary grilled-cheese sandwich and the Jesus Christ fishstick, could you feed the multitude of 5000?

No, but there will be enough whine for everyone.
