EBay Item - Virgin Mary in a grilled cheese sandwich

The seller says, in part:

"Virgin Mary In Grilled Cheese NOT A HOAX ! LOOK & SEE !

I made this sandwich 10 years ago, when I took a bite out of it, I saw a face looking up at me, It was Virgin Mary starring back at me, I was in total shock, I would like to point out there is no mold or disingration, The item has not been preserved or anything, It has been keep in a plastic case, not a special one that seals out air or potiental mold or bacteria, it is like a miracle, It has just preserved itself which in itself I consider a miracle"

=======================

The last time I checked the top bid was US $7,600.00.

Shipping is US $9.95.

But what has me puzzled, considering the item for sale here, is that shipping insurance (US $0.55) is required.

How did she jump to the conclusion that it was the virgin Mary? It looks more like Mary Pickford.

LOL that's funny. That's exactly what I said to someone the other night.

hahaha ! Mary Pickford - that's good!!

Chris, Mary Pickford was "America's Sweetheart" in the early years of the 1900s. She was a silent film actress who couldn't quite make it in "talkies". She was married to Douglas Fairbanks - the couple formed the "United Artists" film company (along with Charlie Chaplin and D.W. Griffith). UA was created to give control to the actor's & filmmaker's interests & artistic concerns in filmmaking.

Well I don't know how much luck that would bring you!! THis seller is claiming they made wads of cash from owning it. Something like a good luck charm. And you're not meant to eat a good luck charm.....

Plus it could just be a moldy bit of bread, you might give yourself something worse than indigestion!

There seems to something on the reverse side of the slice of the toast, too.
