Family see Jesus image in Marmite

The family said they found the image comforting

Enlarge Image

It may not be immediately obvious to everyone, but one family are convinced they can see the face of Jesus on the lid of a jar of Marmite.

Claire Allen, 36, said she was the first to notice the image on the underside of the lid as she was putting the yeast spread on her son's toast.

Her husband Gareth, 37, said he could not believe his eyes when he saw it.

Mr Allen, of Ystrad, Rhondda, said: "The kids are still eating it, but we kept the lid."
He explained: "Claire saw it first and called her dad to come and take a photo of it.

"When I first looked at it I wasn't sure, but when I moved it away from me it started coming out. I thought yeah, she's right - that's the image of Jesus.

People might think I'm nuts, but I like to think it's Jesus looking out for us

Claire Allen

Mrs Allen said her 14-year-old son Jamie had also remarked on the likeness.

She told the South Wales Echo: "Straight away Jamie said 'that looks like God', and my other boys (Robbie, four, and Tomas, 11) even said they could see a face.

"People might think I'm nuts, but I like to think it's Jesus looking out for us.

"We've had a tough couple of months; my mum's been really ill and it's comforting to think that if he is there, he's watching over us."

Marmite.

Not even a real competition.

I've thought of making spicy marmite, but it might work out like my banana peanut butter

now, finally we have the proof that jesus lives on in a bottle of marmite.
ALL NON-BELIEVERS TAKE HEED:
THE HOUR OF RECKONING IS UPON YOU!!!!

by the way, and i do not mean this disrespectfully:

did he REALLY have a harelip, or is it just a trick of light in the photograph?

I dropped a big sloppy one in the bowl this morning. And after carefully wiping my bottom, I looked down and was shocked to see John Howards face looking back at me. It had a big cheesy grin on it thanks to a couple of undigested corn bits in the right place.

Not sure what to make of this, but I think it must be some kind of a sign.

Marmite obv far\superior, although last time in UK they had introduced a squeezy bottle, which turned out a bit messy. Did not look like god or anyone else who does not exist, just looked like shit on the kitchen worktop.

Who is the poster otherwise known as Vegemite?

Vegemite vs Marmite?
Don't be silly! My Thai son now insists on his toast and vegemite for breakfast.
I don't really want to mention this, but once i saw my own image on the lid of a jar of vegemite I bought from Villa. Scarey, hey?

No, but the name of god has often appeared inside various articles, normally some vegetable of other with Arabic like swirls, quite often in the Uk press. Obviously there is no god greater than the artichoke.
