So, celebrity chef Paula Deen recently got fired due to some racist commentary from her past. However, my question is, how in the world was this woman a chef for shows on The Food Network from 1999 to 2013? The woman got diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in 2008 - likely a result of consuming so much of her own food. Heck, when just looking at some of her recipes, I feel I may now be diabetic as well. It's no wonder this country is getting to be so obese - we are airing chefs like Paula Deen to show us what's "good" in the belly, and good for extending that belly.
There's even an article titled, "Five Paula Deen recipes that could give you diabetes."
These dishes are: Gooey Butter, Cake, Paula Deen's Fried Butter Balls, Skillet Fried Apple Pie, Wilmington Island Marsh Mud Cake, and Mom's Bacon Dressing.
A writer at Business Insider wrote an article entitled, "The 10 Most Disgusting Things Paula Deen Has Ever Put In Her Mouth," and listed off the following dishes (and guys - just kidding): Tastes Like Lasagna Soup, Peanut Butter Cup Brownie S'mores, Cheese on the Cob, Cherry Balsamic Grilled Stuffed Chicken Breasts, Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf, Double Chocolate Ooey Gooey Butter Cake Ice Cream, Bill Nicholson's Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding, Banana Split Brownie Pizza, Surf & Turf "Fat Darrell" Sandwich, and The Lady's Brunch Burger.
Not only that, but Paula Deen's cookbook (Southern Cookie Bible) was listed as one of the five worst of 2011 in a report released by PCRM (Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine).
As Susan Levin - PCRM's nutrition education director - said, "The high-fat meals in these cookbooks are real recipes for disaster. It's scary that despite all that we know about the close link between high-fat foods and obesity and diabetes, cooks like Paula Deen continue to tout unhealthy meals. The real key to healthful eating is moving away from high-fat, meaty meals that increase the risk of these diseases."
Yet another writer put together a four-part piece entitled, "Paula Deen Is Trying to Kill Us."
Put all that together and what do you have? A celebrity chef! While we're at it, let's make the cooks at McDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Arby's, Dunkin Donuts, and Krispy Kreme celebrity chefs as well! America - land of the obese, home of the diabetic.
