Stunned woman discovers crucified figure of Christ in pith of peeled tangerine

BLESSED be the fruit!

The crucified figure of Christ appears in the pith of Gene Guglielmi’s peeled tangerine.

The nursing home supervisor, 57, of New Jersey, US, said: “I spotted the figure as soon as I separated the two halves of the tangerine and it looked like Jesus.

"I remember thinking 'look at that, a figure that looks just like Jesus hanging on the cross, neat'.

"I also thought 'wait 'til my friends see this, they'll think it's cool too'."

As she posted a snap of it online, it viral racking up more than 3,200 likes, shares and comments.

One wrote: "My goodness it's a crucifix."

Another one said: "We have been waiting for Jesus to return, and he was just chilling in a tangerine this whole time."
