My Take On Paula Deene

Talk about trying to hurt another person and ruin their life. First of all it is no ones business what Paula's health problems are. People are not fat because she uses butter. For cripes sake, it is caused by overeating. The fact that she cooks with butter should not matter. I cook with butter, I have type 2 diabetes and it is well controlled. I make wonderful dishes with calories, but I do not sit down and eat the whole thing at one time. The chef that came out against her (jealousy), probably uses too much of the bad stuff also. Most of the chefs use too much salt, too much fat in their dishes. Of course they are not concerned about who is eating it, just that it tastes good. Lets face it, bacon, butter and salt increase flavor.It is up to us to decide what is healthy for us, Paula and the rest of the chefs that cook for us and write the cookbooks are not suppose to be our calorie police. Healthy eating is a personal decision for each of us. I wish Paula the best and hopes she keeps making good food.
