This topic should be here or in the free-wheel. Check this site:

Quote:
Altzenter.org kindly invites you and your friends to the exhibition of the Corpus Christi Chocolate in the candy isles of Budapest's supermarkets. The opening will take place in undefined stores and times over the course of December. During the opening speech we will greet the security guards, the supermarket staff, and the surveillance cameras. The exhibition will be on display until the artworks get noticed.

In case your wondering there's article on Tékozló Homár that explains pretty well what's up - but in Hungarian.

The chocolate Jesus figures are secretly placed among the chocolate Santa Clauses by a mysterious organisation. Should you chance upon one of the hidden surprise Christis you'll find that there's no way to pay for it at the counter - the shop attendants will probably stare at you in disbelief for wanting to pay for something they don't even sell.

I think that we're about to witness the first open strike down of this freshly formed Hungarian activist group fighting against our well established "buy-consume" society. Wink They have created a forum where they are awaiting any comments on Corpus Christi Chocolate purchase experiences.

Well there isn't any hiding in the forum's Santa Claus army.

Please let me know if you find any sacred chocolate figures, they are supposed to be smuggled into Budapest shops.

I still couldn't get my hands on any of these chocolate Christs. Maybe there just isn't any...
