VAM!
(I can hear Emeril saying that.)
I heard a story this morning about a German man (Frank Oynhausen) who decided that he was tired of the commercialization of Christmas. "I started thinking about how I could reintroduce traditional religious values into this commercial world". He launched his company "Sweet Lord" which produces and sell foil-wrapped chocolates in the shape of Jesus.
The church is not amused.
Quote:
"It is terrible that Jesus is being wrapped up in gold foil and sold along with chocolate bunnies, edible penguins and lollipops," said Aegidius Engel, a spokesman for the archdiocese of Paderborn.
"This is ruining the symbol of Jesus himself," he added.

I'd like to direct Mr. Engel's attention to the local Catholic Articles store.
