Scots mum stunned after seeing 'face of Jesus' in Aldi potato

A Scots mum was left shocked after discovering the face of Jesus in an Aldi supermarket potato.

Nikki Halkerston, 44, was unloading her shopping onto the kitchen counter when she saw the face of Christ in a pack of £1.15 Aldi tatties.

She immediately called her husband over to take a look and he agreed it looked like the son of God.

Receptionist Nikki, from Dundee, said: "As soon as I put the packet on the kitchen top I saw it.

"I was staring at it and it was just quite obvious it was Jesus' face. It was just looking at me.

"I've seen stories before about people finding Jesus in their food but I can never usually see it. This was just so obviously him.

"I called my husband into the kitchen and he's usually really sceptical about these sort of things.

"He never gets over-excited about anything but even he agreed it looked like Jesus!"

However, the prized tattie hasn't been made into a shrine as Nikki was too hungry.

"I've eaten it now," she revealed

It's not the first time the humble potato has been been at the centre of a 'miracle' sighting of Jesus.

In October, Amy Cathrine McCue, 26, thought she saw a familiar bearded figure in the tattie scone she was frying.

"When I first saw it I was going to keep it felt like it was a sign from him," she told the Daily Record at the time.

"I ate it because he told me to. It was like a Biblical sacrifice."
