Paula Deen Is Trying To Kill Us

Dish, your mother obviously had a taste bud malfunction that day. I have eaten there many times, and Paula Deen's restaurant, The Lady and Sons, is one of the best restaurants, if not the best restaurant in Savannah.

Come on people. Fat(s) are not the problem, except for trans fats. If your liver and gall bladder are working properly you can easily digest the fat.

The problem with this is the calories, if you are counting such things. A little butter-ball (not the turkey) every now and then is good for the soul.

(The gall bladder is a small pear-shaped organ on the underside of the liver that is used to store bile. Bile is made in the liver and is stored in the gall bladder until it is needed to help the digestion of fat.)

The sun rises and sets on more than your opinions.

Hey flooky.. you might want to consider adding a little fat to your diet. Maybe then you wouldn't be such a snarky old bat. You said Paula makes you want to vomit... as much as being fat disgusts you, vomiting probably comes easy to you. You are such an opinionated, rude moron. If you don't like Paula, turn off the t.v. and go vomit your tofu up.

This woman makes me want to vomit. I swear to god they turn up her mic the second she starts tasting the food and makes the most disgusting sounds while eating. I do not want to hear a fat person breath heavily and smack there food around their blubbery gullets in restaurants and I sure as hell don't want to hear big mama butter balls over there do it on tv. Her food is gross, disgusting, and vile. It makes my mother's reeses cups addiction seem like a healthy diet. Jesus Christ. I don't care how humble and jolly this bitch is. She should have never gotten a tv show.

now i usually try to eat healthy, and like most healthy eaters i have my days where i dont stress about it and eat fattier foods...but BUTTER BALLS!?!? I can never get through 5 minutes of Paula's show without changing the channel in disgust(this goes for Emeril too) America is the fattest country in the world and with people like paula and emeril proliferating our TV screens i can see why.

i just think its sad that gut busting chefs get prime time spots while healthy chef's (Ellie Kriegr) get crappy time slots

Alright people...first, yes it is true Paula's son Bobby joked about the "deep-friend butter" on her Chefography episode, however it wasn't any member of the family that came up with the recipe, it was a loyal fan and viewer. This viewer showed Paula how to make the recipe on her show "Paula's Party," where even Paula exclaimed "THIS IS SICK!" LOL. Ok, so that bit is square away...

Next, everyone that is complaining about Paula's use of REAL ingredients such as butter, whole milk, cream, eggs, etc...that is how humans have been eating for many centuries and they survived just fine. We were not meant to eat or grow accustomed to the "partially hydrogenated," heavily preserved, artificial, genetically modified, altered and manipulated, processed and high-sodium monstrosities we consume now. It isn't natural, and that's why Type II Diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and other such uglies have taken hold of our present world and RUN with us!

Lastly, I highly doubt anyone does eat like that on a daily basis, including Ms. Deen and her family, and it would be quite silly to assume they do! And as far as her TV persona, HELLO, it's purpose is for entertainment and the woman is doing her job...and well. Obviously, or you all wouldn't feel the need to discuss her to this degree. She overcame a lot and is now being blessed with success and happiness. I admire her for it.

Ok, now I'm done...lol.

So what? No one is forcing you to make it and eat it. Its not harmful to eat things like this once in awhile, and in moderation. If you don't like her, don't watch her. RELAX. Besides butter is PURE FAT already anyway. Aren't there more important things in the world to b**ch about?

Dean: "I'm gettin' fatter by the day. I just hate my arterae. I'll plug 'em up and make 'em die, 'cause everything I eat is fried."

As a Southern belle, born and bred, and having lived in Georgia for 45 years, I have to say that everyone in my family agrees that Paula puts on a lot of that drawl. In all my years I have never heard ANYONE talk like she does, unless they are parodying ignorant Southerners. But hey, it seems to be getting her what she wants - lots of attention.

As for her recipes, they too are mostly for show. Southerners know about serum cholesterol, triglycerides, and diabetes. Yes, we have regional favorites, but they wouldn't make Yankees gawk and watch a show. Folks, "that's entertainment," I suppose.

For a true slice of Southern cuisine, please pick up a copy of Southern Living magazine or one of their cookbooks. For a funnier parody of Southern rednecks, watch reruns of "HeeHaw."

Do some of you people just watch these shows because you've run out of everyday things in your lives to "crab" about. I agree with "turn the channel" I'm a Paula fan, no I don't fix everything she creates. She is pure entertainment though. And.... which one of you are such a perfect specimen of human figure that you feel the need to even comment on the physical features of another human being? Your jealous the women is successful while seeming to enjoy life. Get over it. Cook her recipes or don't. Watch her show, or don't. Get your own life, you might be happier.

As a "healthy cook" I watch what we eat and prepare things in the healthiest possible way, but this weekend at the farmer's market I was attacked by a memory of my Mother and Grandmother and those amazing vegetable suppers they made in the summer. The idea that vegetables should be steamed and crisp was anathema to those ladies and I got a craving for green beans and new potatoes ( used Paula Deen's recipe cause I didn't write down my Mother's) with salt pork and bacon grease (yes I had to go locate those things in the grocery store!), sliced tomatoes, squash casserole ( with butter and cracker crumbs and cheese...lots of cheese), maninated cucumbers and onions, icy cold watermelon and cantaloupe. Today I have huge guilt that I did it and am headed to the gym to do penance, but OMG it was good!
