Paula Deen Is Trying to Kill Us, Part 3

I have always considered fudge to be a total waste of good chocolate and time. But I really like Velveeta and I LOVE chocolate so I'm going to give it a try. And, yes, many of Paula's recipies are not low fat or anything resembling "health food", but she is entertaining. If you ever watch "Semi-Homade" with Sandra Lee, she always has at least one drink involving alcohol and this doesn't seem to cause the kind of reaction that Velveeta fudge does!

I can't stop laughing at the absurd and reactionary remarks. This is food, not a war draft. Good thing we live in America were we are free to be critical to anyone we disagree with, because we are really good at it.

Paul Deen is an interesting character. That this women has not had a heart attach with all of her high fat recipes simply amazes me!!

Where do I start?? First of all, the obviously faked souther accent gets a little old. I have heard her pronounce the same word a couple of different ways, For example, I have heard her pronounce "shrimp" as a one syllable, clipped work. On other occasions, I have heard her pronounce it "shrrrrriiiiimmmpp", with an obvious warping and almost making it a three syllable word!! Cute, Paula!!

Secondly, the woman cackles when she laughs!!! She should get a part in a witch movie!!! Or maybe, working a haunted house on Halloween.

Thrid, Paula, if your gonna wear fake eyekashes, make them reasonable length! Those fans you wear could cool downtown Atlanta in August!!

Fourth, watch Paula sometime when she tastes her food. She shoves in a bite that is probably about four times bigger than the average human being! And the sounds she makes--I swear the woman is having an orgasm when she wraps her lips around some of the hi-cal grub!!!

Fifth, Paula, on magazine covers, don't have them go so far wit the retouching. I have seen a cover of her and her husband when I did not know at first glance who they were!!! Her turkey neck completely disappered, and Michael's eyes almost looked like they were open!!!

I could go on, but I won't. My wife loves the food channel, and occainally watches Paula. But, hey, to each their own!!!

Paula is a loving person and has fun everywhere she goes. I know many of her employees and she treats them well. She is wealthy now due to working hard and developing a skill that people value. She didn't expect to be a TV celebrity. She only wanted to support her family. You don't have to prepare her recipes or go to her restaurants. Chill out!

OMG, I haven't laughed so hard in years as I did at the ranting in this thread. Diatribes on punctuation, food police, psychological syndromes, sexual harrassment, and alcohol abuse, all thanks to one recipe. Paula must be laughing her diamond-encrusted, butter swilling, slightly smarmy, half schnockered wide-glide butt to the bank! I know I am (sans bank deposit slip). Thank you, all!

thank you for saying so, Cherubcrnp. that is actually the #1 thing that creeps me out about Paula Deen. she's a dirty old lady! if she were a male chef we could call that sexual harassment and it wouldnt be funny at all.

Don't eat the damn food if you don't like the content! You are not being forced to make these recipes, nor eat the food. YOU eat what YOU like and the rest of us mature adults will eat what WE like. I am sure that you have eaten a hamburger, french fry or doughnut in your lifetime....well, guess what, you have just eaten a fried cheese and butter ball. It's all the same thing, just a different flavor.

Remember, it is people like you and me who made her famous, not to mention her scrumptious recipes. There is no harm in eating food like this if you ingest in moderation.

bigassbob, all I can say is AMEN! When I began viewing this blog, I loved it. After viewing it daily, I have come to realize some, but fortunately, not all, claim to be serious foodies, while in reality are simply food SNOBS. Lighten up, people! We all are allowed to make CHOICES, and some choose to occasionally make a poor nutritional choice, just for a buttery/cheesy/creamy/chocolatey sensory satisfaction. We don't ALL just eat to live. How boring is that? I had no idea the food police monitored this so closely, yet the same people constantly bad mouth anyone who dares to be different, or shows creativity, no matter how bad the creation. Paula may not be my favorite food personality, but who am I ---- or you, to tear her apart? Save it for those more worthy. You all love and approve of Bourdain, who eats live snake hearts and all manner of strange things, but let that southern lady promote her love of butter and such, and you're ready to lynch her. Ya'll probably secretly have to hide in your closet to enjoy any type of goodie, after all the preaching you do. How much fun are you to live with? You may live long, but not well. Being the serious foodie I am, all this serious talk has me craving something decadent. Maybe I'll whip up a batch of Paula's Velveeta fudge, or her Gorilla cake, or her wonderful blueberry dumplings. Has anyone tried them? Yummy!

Paula Dean can simply say the word "mayonaise" I practically burst into flames. She is unbearable, her recipes are down right irresponsible (and nasty). Have you seen The Lady's Brunch Burger recipe? Bacon and a fried egg, on top of a burger w/ a glazed donut serving as the bun.

I am not making this up.

some of you people are truly pathetic. she isnt forcing food down your throat. eat what YOU like. its so american to blame someone else for harm that you do to yourself. anything can be bad for you if you abuse it. get a life people. in fact some of you should eat as many of these cheese balls as possible. especially if it shortens your lifespan.

By accident, I did happen to see Dean's show and couldn't believe my eyes: an over-weight, middle-age "kind of trampy" woman with a nausea provoking syrupy southern accent cooking some of the unhealthiest stuff ever!!! Is the Food Network insane? They dropped Emeril but Paula is still promoting heart disease.
