Holy Mango!

A woman in Sweden cut into a mango and quickly realized that swirls and lines on the fruit spelled out the name Allah and Mohammed.
Rubina Sheikh, a Muslim woman residing in Sweden, sliced open a mango and noticed black lines in it that formed the Arabic words "Allah" and "Muhammad," which are holy to Muslims, a local newspaper reported.

"I sliced the fruit into two and noticed that the word 'Allah' was on one half while the word 'Muhammad' was on the other half," Sheikh told the newspaper. "It's a miracle, a sign from Allah."

Ever since word of this wonder got out, Muslims have been flocking to the woman's home in order to see it for themselves. However, a professor at a nearby university who is an expert on Islam says the discovery is not that dramatic.
Well, given that Muslims have seen Allah in ice cream swirls and footwear and boycotted those who produced those products, this is pretty innocent in comparison.
