KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- A symbol of Christianity that sits atop church steeples, dangles from necks and hangs on walls is finding a new home -- in the mouths of the faithful.

In addition to its usual chocolate Easter bunnies, candy maker Russell Stover is also offering milk chocolate crosses this year.

The nation's third-largest candy maker is selling the six-inch crosses under its Pangburn's brand in thousands of stores, with a focus on the Hispanic market.

The chocolate cross is adorned with a floral bouquet and filled with caramel made of goat's milk -- popular in Latin America. Its packaging features Spanish more prominently than English.

A spokesman for the Roman Catholic diocese of Bridgeport, Connecticut, finds the new product insulting. He says, "The cross should be venerated, not eaten."

Easter is the second-biggest holiday for candy producers, behind Halloween.

Okay, which of us is gonna be the first to distribute these tokens of good will to the protesters outside that hospice in Florida?

We could attach cards that say, "Easter Blessings From the Governor".
