Don't Paula Deen Just Make Ya'll Sick Ya'll?

[Sam]

The way she talks kind of reminds me of
Scarlett O'Hara in the movie: Gone with the Wind.

HUH???

You need to watch the movie again.

She is FAR less annoying than Rachael Ray with her "sammies" and "EVOO" and all her other totally OBNOXIOUS sayings.

Thanks!!
I just got finished watching Paula's show on BBQ and her accent and the "y'alls" didn't bother me, probably because I'm used to it and speak that way myself most of the time. I am hungry now and I just finished eating!!!

[Overtaxed]

I gave up on the Food Network years ago when it stopped being about cooking, and turned into entertainment.

I have to say that everything Paula makes look like slop, especially those overcooked vegetables (the "Southern" way). My Aunt went to her restaurant ins Savannah, said it was a buffet & said it was gross.

Nobody mentioned how Paula always managed to "wear" everything she eats.

I know this will sound weird, but am I the only one put off when TV Chefs, eat (and savor) their food in front of the camera, and tell how delicious it is? Maybe it was the way I was raised, but we were taught to never eat in front of someone without offering some to whoever else is there. The one who bothers me the mosty is Lidia Bastianich.

i am a country gal,[kentucky] and i dont talk like that. i also can't stand rachael ray....

[Rudy's Girl]

Gotta admit I'm not crazy about some of Paula's habits, but for some reason it's her fellow Food Network chef Giada De Laurentiis that gets to me. That frozen smile, and the smug way she comes off like at the end of her show. "Oh look"! "Jason is trying to get seconds"....."Look", "David is licking his plate"! She just bugs me....

ahhhh couldnt agree more..cant put my finger on it..stick thin with giant boobs...head wayyy outta proportion to her body...crazy no lip smile..the living off her grandfathers name..ahhh the saying all the italian words in a way that no italian says them to make sure we know where she was from even tho she doesnt say ANYTHING else in an accent ( she makes my inlaws laugh and their from italy when she pronounces things and they correct it).she even has to overenuciate the word spaghetti..cmon..puhlease..this one does work my nerves ...but yet i watch...like a train wreck lol

Believe it or not, I know people here in Oklahoma who actually talk/sound worse than Paula Deen!! They sound so "hickified" that I couldn't suppress my laughter!!!

[Dixie Girl]

As we all know, Southern dialect varies from person to person (somehow). I have a brother in law who sounds so country that you would think he just came from the mountains, wears overalls, you name it, yet holds two degrees and a high paying job. My honey, from the same place, is less educated, and yet has a quiet Southern drawl that makes me melt just to listen to him (Of course, according to him, he doesn't have an accent, I do!)

[rickenbacker]

Did I post this already? Too tired/lazy/sleepy to look back in the thread (sorry!).

Paula's Butter Cake Recipe:

Butter, for greasing pan
2 cups butter
1 1/2 cups butter oil
1/4 cup butter juice
3 cups all-purpose butter
1 teaspoon baking butter
3 cups peeled and finely chopped butter
1 cup shredded butter
1 pinch of butter, for taste

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Generously grease a tube pan.
For the cake: in a large bowl, combine the butter, butter oil, butter juice, and baking butter; and mix well. Fold butter, butter, and butter into batter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bathe in it until you go into cardiac arrest.

ROTFLOL!!!! I have never seen someone like butter as much as Paula Dean.... YA'LL!!!

I used to talk so fast I used to sound like Boomhauer from King of the Hill... I moved from Charlotte, NC to Florida back in July of 1989 and got tired of everyone asking me to repeat myself, or staring at me with a blank look because they had NO IDEA what on Earth I had just said.

I learned to slow my speech down and then all I got was, "Where are yew frum?" (People mocking my accent). So now I kind of speak in a "plain" accent (if that makes sense). You can still detect a southern drawl, but not much of one.

My best friend, Carol, still lives in Charlotte, and she has NEVER sounded southern. I wonder why some people pick up an accent where they have lived all their lives, and others do not? I had another friend, Allison, who sounded like a southern belle (spoke like Blanche on The Golden Girls).

[BooMom]

I loves me some Paula ! I'd rather listen to her than uber-perky RR (gagging ) or that "I'm so refined, I can't speak above a whisper" Ina Garten (Barefoot Contessa)! Shit, woman, if I can't hear what you're saying abut the food, what makes you think I wanna try your damn receipe?!?

I was gonna say that maybe people get it from their parents and/or other family members, but I remembered that my husband says "caint" for "can't", which I tease him about, but other than that he doesn't have too much of a drawl or accent, and then there is my youngest daughter who is 9 years old, she talks like a real southern kid from Georgia or Alabama!! I don't know where she gets that from.

OMG, yes, you said it all.....and I've heard other Italians getting annoyed as well...

Can't stand Giada either. They way they film her show, they try to make it seem so erotic...it's only foodm cooked by a skinny bitch with huge boobs who has to put her Italian affect to dish she prepares.

[endsleigh03]

Good Gawd, Y'all.

She got smacked in the head with a hog.

At least she laughed about it.

I heard something about that today on TV. She got hit in the head with a frozen ham?

I'll bet when she picked her ass up off the floor she cooked it in BUTTER!

She looks like a Pez dispenser. I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds her over pronunciation as very odd.

Shame Paula got hit in the head, but that's what happens when you throw hams back and forth like footballs.

[Valentino009]

I'm surprised it wasn't a block of butter that hit her. It's scary when foods attack you back.

God I thought it was just me! LOL..I hate the music they play when Giada is cooking..it sounds like food porn sometimes! and I hate the way she pronounces things too!

[rosemom]

Here's the story with a video link. I love how her husband doesn't even glance her way while this is happening....

I'm glad it didn't knock out any of her expensive dental work.
She does have pretty teeth.

[jaylene]

I like Paula Deen. The way she talks don't bother me cause I grew up with people talking like that all around me. So I don't really think about it to much. And yes I'm guilty of saying y"all. *holds my head down in shame*

[Inked_Daddy]

I have heard her type of accent a few times in my life.

[Inked_Daddy]

Oh... btw Alton Brown grew up in the same part of Georgia that I did. We do not have the 'Accent".

Paula just has the Savannah accent thing going on (people in Charlston SC sound the same way).

[salvatore1989]

This is why I no longer watch much television.

I <3 Alton Brown.

[Fancynancy]

I actually really like her--I saw her on Larry King last night with some other cooks/chefs and Larry was getting allfrustrated because everyone was talking over him. You could tell he was getting pissed, it was funny!

[Pryncis]

Alton Brown ROCKS! I occasionally hear the "accent" up here in the northeast part of SC. I guess we have such a mixture of accents here since people from all over come to Myrtle Beach to visit and decide to move here. I hear it more towards the southern part of the county, near the low country...

The Weather Channel played the video over and over again this morning. I loved the way you hear the people clapping and yelling "Yeah!" when someone would catch a ham then it was "oooooooooooooooh!" when it hit her. They even said they couldn't get enough of it!

[sablegsd]

Paula Deen wouldn't make a pat of butter on Julia Child's ass.

The Original Queen of Butter!

Am I right, y'all?

[Inked_Daddy]

I must admit... my girlfriend my sophomore year of High School had an accent like Paula Dean.

[navallint]

The first year Paula was on I liked her. She so reminded me of my Mom of 20 years ago ( but my Mommas vittles would have put hers to shame). As the years went by the accent exaggerated and I have to wonder just what else is pretense. Having been dirt poor for so long, her millions have made her raunchy-vulgar. IMO

[John carpenter]

Yes, if she eats stuff like that one of these days she'll keel over and crap her pants right on national TV!

I almost shit myself Laughing at that comment R.O.F.L. I bet her Cholesterol is sky high Y'all

[John carpenter]

I'll bet they taste just like butter!

Sam what are we going to do with you? You are funny as hell! R.O.f.L.

I always had the feelin this guy hangs around for the free food and occasional poke.

[Scott Michaels]

I made her pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving. It had so much fat shit in it, and it wasn't as good as I've had before, with a plain old "on the can" recipe.

That's a shame. How did her recipe vary from others?

One of the cooks who has changed the most is Emeril Lagasse. We all age and maybe get a little bigger here and there, but Emeril looks like a totally different person then he did when he first came on the scene. Not just older and bigger, but a different person entirely.

[DonnaMc]

I went to school in Mississippi and it doesn't sound THAT annoying to me. I probably talk the same way! lol

[Jason]

My grandmother would always use her own fork to put food on her plate, my in laws do the same... it bugs me but I guess some families just don't give a shit. She probably comes from that type of stock, I doubt anybody will die from her cooking because she licked a spoon... I'll still taste whatever the hell she is making.

[PurrPurr]

I tried one of her recipes for peanut butter cookies...WAY too sweet for my taste. Bleh.
