Christian Salt Introduced

After reportedly tiring of hearing chefs on television recommend kosher salt, a retired barber has introduced Blessed Christians Salt, which is sea salt blessed by an Episcopal priest. What to you think?

“This just might pave the way for my Lutheran hot dogs.”

My comments: 1) It’s a good thing it’s an Episcopal priest, so the blessing really counts. 2) I would give almost anything to be that priest. 3) I eat so many hot dogs already, the moral license (just kidding, you pundits!) that Lutheran theology offers is the last thing I need. 4) A guy in my congregation just got cast as a news anchor for The Onion News Network!

Here’s the link to the original. As always when clicking around on The Onion, watch for hilarity, potty-mouthedness, hilarious potty-mouthedness, and potty-mouthed hilarity.
