Related: About this forumCentral Texas man selling tortilla he claims has Jesus' face on it
The Austin man who claims he saw the face of Jesus Christ on an almond tortilla in December is selling it on eBay, just in time for the Easter holiday.
No bids have been placed on the hipster version of a tortilla (seriously, almond?) as of Wednesday morning and it is unclear who in their right mind would buy a three-month old tortilla.
Andrew Key, the tortilla merchant, is selling the tortilla with a starting bid of $15, and someone who wants to buy it outright can do so for a whopping $10,000. But let's not forget: There's a shipping cost of $2.32.
Key claimed that a burn mark on one of the tortillas he received depicted the face of the religious figure with a full beard in December.

Wonder what I could get for it.
Did you make a bid?

My brother would make a breakfast taco and eat it even though the tortilla is stale (and probably getting moldy).

I can barely see you, Jesus.
Key must be preying on the gullible, rather than actually believing that.

An almond tortilla would be an abomination.
Thank the gods this unholy perversion hasn't made its way south. I shall pray for the soul of the hell-bound fiend who has defiled the blessed breakfast of the devout.
