HOLLYWOOD, Fla. – The grilled cheese sandwich reputed to bear image of the Virgin Mary was sold on eBay.

The online casino goldenpalace.com said it placed the winning bid of $28,000 for the half-sandwich with a bite taken out of it. A spokesman for the casino told The Miami Herald the sandwich is “a part of pop culture” and that the casino “knew right away” that it wanted to purchase it.

The online auction site initially pulled the sale, saying it didn't post joke items.

The page was restored after the company was convinced that the seller intended to make good on the deal.

I think it is crazy. Why would you buy a piece of bread that would mold within days. It is like a disinigrating, sp?, purchase.
 
It will grow moldy within days. After several weeks, there will be nothing left of a 28,000 USD purchase.

This is as bad as the freeedom fry that was sold on ebay a few years ago. It sold for like 2,800 dollars or something.
 
Damn, I should go make some grilled cheese. Maybe I can make the face of Jesus in it and be rich!

I don't even know how you would get it to burn in the 'correct' places to make a picture. What would you do, heat a knife and put it on the bread where you want to darken the bread to form the picture?
 
First off, we already have a thread for this.

And secondly, the sandwich is apparently 10 years old, the owner has preserved it.

And yes, this whole situation is completely stupid... $28,000 for a damn sandwich...
 
...until you realise that the buyer is now selling T-shirts of the cheese at $20 each...
 
I took a crap once that looked like Lydon Johnsons face. No one paid me. I need a better agent.
 
<--------Gorbachev hoagie belongs to THE STATE!

MOTHERLAND, HOOO!!!!
 
How come few if any one ever thinks it might be the spirit of a hippy, including when Jesus is the supposed subject?
 
Unfortunately I was born in Hollywood, Fl. That might just blow monkeys nuts. . .
 
It's simple.

Mary=10 year old Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Joesph=15 year old soft drink
Jesus=turd



NO offense. I do believe in god.
