Cheesus: The Cheeto Jesus
A man and woman from New York say they’ve found Jesus — inside a bag of Cheetos. The so-called “Cheesus” popped out of a snack bag the two bought while driving cross-country recently, and it’s quickly becoming quite the online phenomenon.

Cheesus just “appeared,” the two say, and they’re not sure what to do about it. For now, the Cheeto Jesus is being kept carefully wrapped inside a wristwatch box.
“What I’ve been worried about is if I have it around my house, it’ll get eaten,” the woman, a retired teacher, tells a local newspaper.
The two tell local media outlets their friends have urged them to put the Cheeto Jesus up for sale on eBay, or to try to get it on the Ellen talk show. For now, though, they’ve made no decisions.

The couple are NOT from New York…they are from Dallas, Texas.

Isn't the answer obvious? They need to sell it (Him) on eBay, just like everyone else does.

I say eat it. People have been “finding” Jesus in everything from bed sheet stains to donuts for years. If Jesus is going to make an appearance on Earth, I'm 99% sure it won't be as a damn Cheeto, FFS.
Sad thing is, if they put it on eBay, some nutcase will buy it anyways.

I though ingesting the body and blood of Christ is par for the course?

Hmmm…on careful study of the photo, I think it looks more like Moses. Or maybe my old maid aunt Carole when she carried the peas to the table last Thanksgiving. .

How much you want for it? I can put it next to my half-chewed toosie-roll Jesus, and my mold-on-my-pizza that looks like Mary Magdalene.
Does anyone have a food item that looks like Salvador Dali's wife, Gala? That would really put me on the top of the food-item pecking order at the Moose Lodge. those Jealous little twerps.
