Who the heck is Rachel Ray ??

Don't watch the Food Network do you?

* There have been and continue to be a small number of people who will wear a kaffiyeh with the explicit intent to support Palestinians in general, and a smaller subset who support the violent terrorism perpetrated by some Palestinian groups.
* I don't think Rachel Ray was making a statement.
* Getting that particular ad pulled for those reasons makes the complainants look like whiny children.
* Comparing all kaffiyehs to a Nazi armband is preposterous.

Up until reading this thread, I thought a kaffiyeh was worn over the head.  I did not know it could also be worn as a scarf.  I also was unaware of the political significance of the color and pattern.  I don't think I have ever seen one being worn in the Seattle area.

I learn something every day.

i thought she had a talk show on one of the bigger channels?

she is annoying though, in that overly hyper, chip chipper way. yuck!

I just found the store I've been looking for and bought two more.... look at who makes/sells these, guys.



I know, not white/black, but... are these also horrifying to some of you?

It's odd how bullet points can sometimes say so much more than a book.

She and Sandra Lee seem to be the two most loathed Food Network hosts.  They actually have anti-fan clubs.

Absolutely!.......they charge twice as much as Cheaper than Dirt does for them....

Probably because they aren't "make everything from scratch with ingredients sourced from shops you'll only find in NYC or LA" types.  They both cook more like regular people.  I'm not a huge fan of Lee and I'm burned out on Ray (she was interesting 4 years ago when I first "discovered" her), neither warrant enough effort to organize an anti club.

That's part of the problem, but a lot of it has to do with their personality "quirks".  'EVOO' and 'tablescapes'.  Sandy's outfits also draw more than a few comments.  I'm with you on Ray, she wasn't bad back in the day, but I fear she has hit saturation level.

Giadia, though is a different story.

I would like to drink sample some of Sandra Lee's mixed drinks.

Rachel Ray makes me nauseous.

1.  The scarf she's wearing in the picture isn't exactly a kaffiyeh, but close enough to mistaken for one.

2.  IIRC, There was an article recently in the Chicago Tribune about the Jewish(?) or Palestinian cloth maker who made the kaffiyeh cloth being put out of business by the cheap imports form China.

3.  If I'm looking for new recipes, I search the interswebz for Venison Helper.
