Marmite messiah, Jesus found on Marmite lid

In the best piece of pareidolia this year, Claire Allen of Ystrad, Rhondda has reported to the BBC that she first noticed the MarmArt (1) (2) (3) image of Jesus on the underside of her Marmite lid when she was spreading the yeast extract on her son's toast. According to the BBC report, Mr Allen said that they are still eating the Marmite, but kept the lid after taking a photo. "When I first looked at it I wasn't sure, but when I moved it away from me it started coming out. I thought yeah, she's right - that's the image of Jesus." Mrs Allen said that her son also remarked on the likeness and is quoted saying; "People might think I'm nuts, but I like to think it's Jesus looking out for us." After a Google face search, I can only conclude that the Marmite face looks like either Jesus of Nazareth or Penn Jillette.
As a final thought, does this means that during Holy Communion it will be possible to add Marmite?
