Anthony Bourdain vs. Paula Deen

Last year Anthony Bourdain without provocation singled out Paula Deen. He has also dogged Rachel Ray

Last summer Bourdain called Deen the "most dangerous person to America" who's "proud of the fact that her food is bad for you. In fact Bourdain tangled with several chefs in the TV Guide article.

His venom was saved for Paula though, he continues on in the article to say "If I were on at seven at night and loved by millions of people at every age, I would think twice before telling an already obese nation that it's OK to eat food that is killing us. Plus, her food sucks."

Anthony is known for being a jerk towards people but he was pretty dead on about Paula it seems.

Paula has a great opportunity to turn this in her favor, she has known she had diabetes for 3 years and still she cooked ooey gooey butter cake with gallons of sweet tea to wash it down online. She hasn't taken that opportunity in my opinion, she looks the same size now that she was before the diagnosis and up until she signed that drug endorsement she was on TV cooking that crap of hers. She could have started moving her recipes and cooking techniques towards healthier but she hasn't. Instead she goes on the Today show and gets defensive and preaches moderation, Paula Deen and the word moderation just don't belong in the same sentence IMHO.

Then Anthony sends up the Twitter message saying he is thinking about going into the leg breaking business so he can profitably sell crutches later. Point taken Mr. Bourdain, point taken.
