Paula Deen - A NUT - Page 2

Turducken may be WTF health-wise, but it sounds yummy to me. Me wanna try.

Spexxvet · 11-28-2009, 08:13 AM

I'd like to hit Paula Deen in the face with a ham!

Never mind...

TheMercenary · 11-28-2009, 08:50 AM

We have to live with her in our face on a continual basis. People who come to Savannah flock to line up in the summer Georgia heat to eat at her place. It really is a waste of your time. Most food at a local dinner is better. It is all homestyle cooking and way over priced.

I'm just not that into white trash or white trash cooking.

momwolf was a big fan of the Food Network, and would sometimes end up watching Paula while waiting for some actually good show to come on.

The show where she went to England and played the Even Uglier American was a complete travesty.

And there just should not be a recipe for fudge that uses Velveeta Cheese as an ingredient.

Ick.

Don't forget a layer of stuffing between each bird and inside the last one. Extra points if you use three different kinds of stuffing.

A friend made this for Christmas dinner a year or two ago. The meat was very good. My only issue is that I like crispy skin which didn't happen on the 'underbirds'.

I just guessing, but I wouldn't be suprised to find 'deep fried turducken' out there.

I may need to try that for X-mas.

I read that's a no-no. Deep fried birds work, because the oil is also cooking from the inside. A Turducken is basicly solid and would be underdone, unless you fucked up the outside.

Here ya go.

Bone and deep-fry your birds, cool, then stuff and bake all together to warm it up again. You'd likely want moist heat, a tight-covered roaster, or cooking in parchment.

Hypocrisy abounds ...

Paula Deen
I've Used the N-Word
... But I'm NOT Racist

Quote:

When Paula Deen was asked, under oath, if she has ever used the N-word
-- she responded, "Yes, of course" ... and the shocking admission was all captured on tape.

Deen was being deposed in connection with a pending sexual harassment lawsuit
filed by a former employee who claims she was subjected to a barrage of racist,
sexist and generally inappropriate comments while she worked at
Paula's Oyster House restaurant in Georgia.
<snip>

Quote:

Lawyer: Have you ever used the N-word yourself?
Paula: Yes, of course.
Lawyer: Okay. In what context?
Paula: Well, it was probably when a black man burst into the bank
that I was working at and put a gun to my head.
Sidenote -- Paula was held up at gunpoint during a bank robbery in 1986.

Lawyer: Okay. And what did you say?
Paula: Well, I don't remember, but the gun was dancing all around my temple ...
I didn't -- I didn't feel real favorable towards him.
Lawyer: Okay. Well, did you use the N-word to him as he pointed a gun in your head at your face?
Paula: Absolutely not.

Lawyer: Well, then, when did you use it?
Paula: Probably in telling my husband.
Lawyer: Okay. Have you used it since then?
Paula: I'm sure I have, but it's been a very long time.

Lawyer: Can you remember the context in which you have used the N-word?
Paula: No.
Lawyer: Has it occurred with sufficient frequency that you cannot
recall all of the various context in which you've used it?
Paula: No, no.

Lawyer: Well, then tell me the other context in which you've used the N-word?
Paula: I don't know, maybe in repeating something that was said to me.
Lawyer: Like a joke?
Paula: No, probably a conversation between blacks. I don't -- I don't know.

But that's just not a word that we use as time has gone on.
Things have changed since the '60s in the south.
And my children and my brother object to that word
being used in any cruel or mean behavior.
As well as I do.

So what is the answer to any lawyer's question that begins with...
"Have you ever used the word ... ? "

Mark Furman tried this but it didn't work: " No, never "
Richard Nixon tried this, but it didn't work: " I don't remember "

Maybe Paul should have tried ...

I've never used the N word to refer to anyone, and I don't think I'm racist, but when I was a kid, I repeated that word and got in trouble for it.

In a deposition, I would have to admit that I used it long ago but that I don't use it any more, and I don't think I'm racist. Which is almost verbatim what Deen has said.

I don't care for this woman, and she may be racist, or she might not. But I think she's getting unjustly crucified by a bored press.

It's absolutely ridiculous that the press is bored. There is so much news of substance happening in the world right now.

She's an old white lady from the deep south , of corse she has said nigger , Duuuuhhh !

Perry Winkle · 06-27-2013, 10:39 AM

When I was in 2nd or 3rd grade the kids in the neighborhood taught me a "game" called "N***** Knocking". You know, knocking on doors and running away.

I had no idea what the N word meant. I just thought it was the name of the game. It was a short-lived game we only played a couple of times and I quickly forgot about it.

It wasn't until I was in my early 20's that I made the connection and was very ashamed. But really, can you really blame a child using a word without knowledge of the meaning and context of the word.

I would not consider myself rascist, though I have used the word a quite a few times. Even somewhat recently when quoting people and in discussion about the word itself and the cultural baggage attached.
