Cavallaro, who was raised in Canada and Italy, is best known for his quirky work with food as art: Past efforts include repainting a Manhattan hotel room in melted mozzarella, spraying 5 tons of pepper jack cheese on a Wyoming home and festooning a four-poster bed with 312 pounds of processed ham.

Cavallaro didn't go far enough. An erect chocolate penis that was sucked away by a homosexual dressed up like a Catholic priest (redundant?) on Easter Sunday would have been a better plan.

That's offensive...

I find that morosely humorous myself. I'd take pictures of horrified parents shielding their children's eyes dressed in their Sunday best. That would make for an awesome slide show during the Christmas season. I'd never have to deal with my family again.

Allright, how about a chocolate Jesus being sucked off by a chocolate George W. Bush with white chocolate semen sprayed all over his face?

Throw in a cheddar preggo Mary Magdelain getting a third trimester abortion by a marzipan St. Peter.

as a stock response, we pesky christians will respond with massive rioting, burning cars, and Patwa's.

Can't check the link, but feel obliged to send you all some Tom Waits:

Dont go to church on sunday
Dont get on my knees to pray
Dont memorize the books of the bible
I got my own special way
But I know jesus loves me
Maybe just a little bit more

I fall on my knees every sunday
At zerelda lee's candy store

Well its got to be a chocolate jesus
Make me feel good inside
Got to be a chocolate jesus
Keep me satisfied

Well I dont want no abba zabba
Dont want no almond joy
There aint nothing better
Suitable for this boy
Well its the only thing
That can pick me up
Better than a cup of gold
See only a chocolate jesus
Can satisfy my soul

(solo)
When the weather gets rough
And its whiskey in the shade
Its best to wrap your savior
Up in cellophane
He flows like the big muddy
But thats ok
Pour him over ice cream
For a nice parfait

Well its got to be a chocolate jesus
Good enough for me
Got to be a chocolate jesus
Good enough for me

Well its got to be a chocolate jesus
Make me feel good inside
Got to be a chocolate jesus
Keep me satisfied

NEW YORK - An anatomically correct chocolate sculpture of Jesus Christ infuriated Catholics and even led to threats, but the artist says offers to buy or exhibit the piece have been pouring in.

Artist Cosimo Cavallaro said Saturday that because of "some people who are fanatics" and the threats he received, he had stored the sculpture in a refrigerated truck in an undisclosed location.

A Manhattan gallery on Friday called off a planned exhibit of the 6-foot sculpture — called "My Sweet Lord" — amid a deluge of complaints from Catholics, including Cardinal Edward Egan.

They were offended by the confection, which does not include the loincloth typical in religious portrayals of Christ. Many also were outraged that the gallery planned to display the sculpture during Holy Week. The exhibit was to have run from Monday through Easter Sunday inside Manhattan's Roger Smith Hotel.

Cavallaro said the controversy spurred "thousands" of e-mail messages from people offering help, donations and exhibition space.
Huh...I guess the priests didn't want to be shown up and have little boys make fun of how small some of them are in *that* area...

As a "believer" I find this whole issue silly. Much ado about nothing. I don't find it offensive in the slightest. That Catholics or Xtians are threatening this guy over this is absolutely idiotic and decidedly un-Christ-like.

I thought catholics were christians?

Or did the whole "decades of promoting the banging of alter boys all the while shipping the Priest/Pedophile around the country for a 'catholic sodomy tour'" thing knock them out of the club?

Dude...there was this thing that happened called the Reformation a long time ago. A good number of conservative Protestant sects don't consider Catholics Christians, and I'd guess that if you got a few beers into an Evangelical it would be fairly easy to get the same assertion out of him.
