Transubstantiation is one of the oddest doctrines of Catholicism.

Feb 2013

Sandwich shop chain Pret A Manger has withdrawn a new "Virgin Mary" brand of crisps following religious complaints.

The firm, with about 350 shops in the UK, launched the spicy tomato crisps - based on the non-alcoholic version of a Bloody Mary cocktail - last week.

This prompted complaints, including from Catholic groups, that it was an offensive reference to Jesus's mother.
...
The Reverend Nick Donnelly, deacon of the Diocese of Lancaster and author of Protect the Pope website, was among those who complained to Pret A Manger.

The deacon went on to lie:

We’ve been passive for too long in the face of mockery of our faith and discrimination against us as Catholics.

After admitting the 'offence' was unintentional (because it was named after the tomato and Worcestershire sauce drink), 'Protect the Pope' (oh, won't someone think of the poor, poor Pope, sitting all defenceless in his sovereign state with his personal army, and his palaces!) then goes on to falsely claim this is "mockery of our faith and discrimination against us as Catholics".
