No wonder she's a tubber! Dean, and many people who eat her fat-laden recipes, is at risk wind up having a massive coronary. The Fred Sanford variety, chest-clutching et al, "Elizabeth, I comin' to meet you darlin'. I ate a deep fried butter ball and deep fried mac and cheese!"

I like to watch her show just to see how she's going to top herself from day to day. Bacon wrapped mac and cheese in a deep fryer. I missed the fried butter balls episode. Too freakin funny!

Paula Deen???? I don't get it!!! Her incessant cackling, sticking her tongue into chocolate fountains, and please, stop with the y'alling.
The worst thing?... her recipes. Soooo bad.
She's Food Network's performing monkey and... they love her. Apparentley, so does the audience. Yeesh.
You can fool some of the people some of the time...but Paula Deen fools all of the people all of the time.

Paul Deen, please, just go away....and take Guy Fieri with you.

OK, OK..we certainly want to eat a bit healthier and be honest: do y'all eat this stuff every day? Once in a while all this fat and cholesterol is good for your soul..but that's about all it's good for. My grandmother, rest in peace ate full-fat everything; half & half, sour cream, cheeses, an occasional piece of red meat and lived to 95.
So a LOT of this is genetic and hereditary.
BTW..Jerzee; My mom is from South Cackilacky and they just got an IGA!

I have not made Ree's olive bread, why you ask? From Ree's Blog quote "The Cast of Characters: French bread, green olives, black olives, green onions, butter, real (not low-fat or fat-free) mayonnaise, and Monterey Jack Cheese." That is why! It is a Paula Deen recipe. Sitck a buttah, mayo, cheese....comprende. All recipe deal breakers for me.

Now I lived in rural NC, and I was not near anything that resembled a good grocery store other than the freaking piggly wiggly. I managed to get good ingredients. How did I manage that? Survey says, I got in the car and drove (sometimes for over an hour) to them. Some I ordered by phone or catalog and some kind people (bless you) shipped to me. I do not accept that she cannot get good ingredients. I will not accept that as an excuse. In the early 90's there was not an "internet" and I got them in Cow Patch North Cackilacky.
The piggly wiggly had three kinds of cheese grated kraft, yeller and owrenge.
Giada doesn't appeal to what I would cook because like her I am italian and I cook those things all the time. I am the everyday italian. Everyday I am "italian".

Jerzee: I hear you. I have a problem with Giada who is now "Boob Girl" in my household. Watch the early shows, then look at what's been filmed in the past 2 years. Food Network is trying to make her look sexy where ever she goes and wherever they film her. The center of the camera image is not on the dish she is preparing, but on her chest 100% of the time. And it's clear that they have a fisheye lens on her because her forehead has become enormous! OGM what would Julia say!!!

Check that: Clarissa and Jennifer rode up to every venue in a motorcylce with a sidecar. The white van showed up later with their provisions in it later. Sorry - senior moment!!!

RichardCrystal: I DO remember the Two Fat Ladies on BBC and I absolutely adored them showing up in their little delivery van and setting up parties.. The were constantly bickering about each other to the camera! They were so entertaining in their delivery. Their show was precious, not because of the recipies and entertaining tips, but because of the way their personalities played off each other, and because of the whispered quips the camera picked up on as they bantered. I miss them. This show was the closest thing to a real small-scale catering experience!

I'm new here, and don't know Pioneer Woman. I am intrigued. If she is cooking up this stuff for people who are not living a corporate, reticent life style and are physically active for 8+ hours a day, then she may be doing a good thing. You need carbs and fat to run on if you truly do the daily physical labor that our grandparents and great grandparents did. My grandfather would have collapsed on a South Beach diet while he walked to the coal mines! However, if the title of Paula's show was something like "Cooking for Your Cowboy" I wouldn't have the same problem. She's presenting this fare as a daily routine to the average American family!

@Tara Tot: I'm with you...:) So, you've made the Olive Bread I see...I've always wanted to, but my BF HATES olives. I figured I would eat the ENTIRE thing-it looks that good. Maybe I should have my best friend over for dinner and make it. We LOVE olives. When we used to frequent the bars, we'd ask the bartender for just olives.:)

I love both Paula and Ree! But what do I know? I'm just an Okie who loves to cook, read, and watch interesting recipes from interesting personalities. ; )

Seriously though, have any of you made Ree's olive bread? It's just about one of the tastiest things to touch my lips... Butter, cheese, and olives. Yum!

@RichardCrystal: LOVED them. They cracked me up. But, I love all things English. Mmmm, chocolate.

I have to say, I like/enjoy watching Paula. She is what she is and makes no bones about it. I love it. I don't make any of her recipes, but whatever. I always laugh/gasp/smile when she's on.

I would like to say one thing though: Pioneer Woman (Ree) is a heck of a blogger and her pictures are amazing. She is out in the middle of nowhere and is feeding ranchers that believe there is nothing else in the world but meat and potatoes. She used to be a chef in Chicago (I believe, or somewhere like that) and knows very well the many ingredients that are out there. But why cook with them when she can't get them or has no need to since they won't be appreciated. I think she's great and is just trying to help others that aren't so fancy about food get into the kitchen to cook with ingredients that can be found at a regular grocery store.

Do y'all renmember the Two Fat Ladies? Somehow when they added butter and fat to everything it wasn't so offensive. I guess the English accent had a good deal to do with it, huh?

I love Paula, especially the way she says "stick of butter." Now that's food porn! I'm not really interested in many of her dishes (except the trifle I once saw her put together), but I find her entertaining.

Hot I understand this concept. It is better to watch the fat being delivered from the granny looking, sing songy southern lady then the fake breasted, chatty cathy, sacchrine Sandie SLOP Lee. Your granny is supposed to give you things that taste good but are bad for you.
I love train wreck cooking shows it is like watching roller derby. You feel compelled to yell out OH NO, Thats got to hurt, OH MAN!
Food is a spectator sport now. Paula is fun to watch. It is all about delivery. She delivers more calories in a short time and giggles right through it.

Why am I fascinated with watching this woman? It's like a car wreck, you just have to slow down and look! I will never actually make any of these meals. I find myself saying "Oh my God!" and catching my breath every time she plops another huge glob of fat some kind into a bowl. Yet, I have to watch, and there's something intriguing about her direct and totally unencumbered delivery of fat. She just throws it out there without even a consideration for making excuses. I do confess that I am not a keeper of margarine - which actually does more damage than butter. However, I do strictly minimize the number of dishes I cook with it. Mayonnaise is just pure evil. But I would love to know what Paula really does eat on a daily basis, because I do believe she's been slimming down!

My favorite Paula Dean quote and she uses it often as she presents her potato soup riddled with cream and festooned with bacon crumbles and shredded cheddar cheese and winks, "Today's not a day for cutting back!"

Don't make it personal! If someone doesn't like something they have just as much right to say so as you do to say you like it. What people eat or watch is an agree to disagree. If you don't like that maybe you should close the window by clicking the X. We will always state our opinions like it or not. If I want to say something is not good I am going to say why I think so. Welcome to freedom of speech. Would you like your pie humble or otherwise?

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.

Paula Deen loves life. She makes no apologies for what she creates and she enjoys every bite of it. If I have to choose between being a health nut and being like Paula Deen, I choose Paula. Since I don't have to choose, I enjoy her concoctions sometimes and sometimes I simply have salad. Thank God this country and our family circumstances allow me those choices. Maybe I'll die earlier than I normally would, but I'll die with a smile on my chubby face.

I love Paula.. don't love her recipes, but I love Paula. Wait, I take it back, I do like some of her dessert recipes. I leave the high calories and 'bad' fat out of my everyday meals and save it for desserts. But even if I didn't like a single one of her recipes, she's just too damn fun lol
