Holy Cheetos, Batman!

                          

It's hard to believe that it's been almost four years since we heard about the Virgin Mary grilled cheese sandwich being auctioned on eBay for $28,000.  A year or two after that, we heard about the Nun Bun being stolen.  In case you've forgotten, the Nun Bun was a cinnamon roll that resembled Mother Theresa.  Since the Nun Bun was stolen, there hasn't been too many discoveries of junk foods resembling religious icons.  That is, until now.  A pastor in Houston, Texas found a Cheeto that he says looks like Jesus praying. 

Pastor Steve Cagg was eating a bag of Cheetos when he found one that he thought looked odd.  At first he thought it looked like a dog, but when he turned the Cheeto around he saw what he said was an image of Jesus praying.  One doubter in his congregation said the Cheeto looks like Lieutenant Dan from "Forrest Gump." But the Cheeto is still special to Pastor Steve - he refers to it as "Cheesus".  There's no chance that this Cheeto will end up on eBay - he keeps it in a plastic box so he doesn't eat it by accident. 

I wish I could have found some different angled shots of the Cheeto, because I don't think it looks anything like Jesus praying.  If you ask me I think it looks like one of those old school little candy babies

I'm going with the Lt. Dan theory.  Too bad our Wavy Lays with an image of Ginghis Khan didn't make the news.
