One day in September 2002, she had given her children some to eat. Her daughter refused to eat one, remarking that it was burnt. Anthony was on the verge of discarding it [2], but on inspection Anthony noticed that the burn mark resembled Christ, an opinion confirmed by her daughter and many of her neighbours.
