Hi, guys —

  • Have you ever heard of hemin bread or Padre Pio bread?
  • Is it a hoax or is it actually connected to the Vatican and Padre Pio?

Sincerely,

Debbie

Mike replied:

Hi, Debbie —

This is a hoax. Catholics don't believe in:

  • good luck
  • superstition

As Gracie said from another web site:

There is no such thing as bread that gives good luck. That is magical thinking.

Catholics do not cast spells — it is a worthless endeavor. However, one can find a recipe that is sentimental, reminds you of Padre Pio, or that might be especially good for you.

I hope this helps,

Mike
