"Did you see this?" my dad asked pointing to a picture of Paula Deen on the cover of People magazine.
"Yeah," I said. "I wish she wasn't getting so much flak."
If you haven't met Paula Deen, she's a colorful character on the Food Network. She speaks with a thick Southern accent and says "y'all" more times than you can count. Her dishes are rooted in the South and are definitely fat-laden. These are not the types of dishes you want to build your meal plan around. These are not the types of dishes you want to eat at every meal. Geez, people should get that. Everything in moderation.
This topic came up in one of the diabetes forums that I'm a member of. Someone wanted to know what we thought about the whole situation.
