While SnackManiac never intended to get in the business of commenting on religious or political debates, it seems that snacks have been flying in the face of spirituality lately and it would be irresponsible of me not to offer my professional assessment.
Today's tale of snack related outrage takes place in New York City, home to many great snacks. And apparently home to many great freaks who have way too much time on their hands to make things out of chocolate or complain about things other people made out of chocolate.
A hotel in midtown was set to display a life sized Jesus made of of MILK CHOCOLATE starting on Monday to coincide with Holy Week. All you need to know is that the exhibit is called "My Sweet Jesus" (HILARIOUS) and the Jesus is fully nude (which is apparently the offensive part. at least he's not wearing a bowtie.) Rather than ignoring the deified dessert, the Catholic League expressed their outrage, catapulting the story to top national news (be sure to watch the video report on msnbc.com, although remember, the Jesus is NAKED and therefore may not be suitable for all audiences.)
My favorite part of the story is thinking about the PR person at the Catholic League using the phrase "naked chocolate Jesus" in a press release.
Also, no one seems to have asked the important question: IS HE HOLLOW?
