No joke
Its owner says it’s the Virgin Mary.
I laughed even harder.
But what a fool I was ! The sandwich is no ordinary sandwich. It’s a lucky sandwich, a piece of fortune bread that has made its owner US$70,000 richer on different occasions, at a casino near her house !
Major media networks clambered to interview the woman and her precious. By the end of it everyone knew that grilled cheese. That half a sandwich with a bite and the face with not a spore of mould on it. The 10-year-old grilled cheese that was going to cost a brand new car.
The auction closed with an impressive US$28,000.
By then I had, of course, stopped laughing.
Today, I read about a cigarette butt on auction with a 4-digit price tag. And I laughed.
I didn’t see the item photo first, so I laughed when I read that half a piece of a 10-year-old grilled cheese sandwich was up for bids on eBay, with a US$3,000 starting bid. Then I saw the posted image. It has a face emblazoned on it.
