Toby Elles, 22, of Salford, England, said he was making a bedtime snack after having some beers with housemates and fell asleep on the couch while waiting for his bacon to cook, the Daily Mail reported Thursday.

"Luckily we have an electric hob so I just turned off the heat, but then I lifted up the bacon and there was JC looking back at me." "It's some kind of miracle," Elles said. He said the "gift from God" image clearly depicts the eyes, nose and trademark long hair and beard of Jesus. "I'm not going to scrub it clean though, just in case I get struck by lightning, it's going to take pride of place on a wall instead," he said. "It's become quite a talking point for people who come round to the house and I have even thought I might get a glass cabinet to put it in.
