Blessed are the cheesemakers? 'Miracle' sandwich fetches $28K
[Reuters]
Every once in a blue (cheese) moon, the opportunity to buy a sacrosanct sandwich comes along. And when that opportunity knocked on eBay, an online casino was there to take a bite. GoldenPalace.com paid $28,000 for a 10-year-old, partially eaten cheese sandwich that supposedly bears the image of the Virgin Mary (it could also pass as a toasted, whole wheat Gwen Stefani, but try getting 28 grand for that). The woman who crafted the
vestal Velveeta says she's kept it in a plastic case since 1994, and that it hasn't gotten moldy. No mold on a 10-year-old sandwich? Now that's a miracle! GoldenPalace.com is already selling Virgin Mary Grilled Cheese T-shirts and plans to use the sandwich to raise money for charity. As long as they don't use it to feed the hungry!
