Some folks like to hate TV 'pop chef' Rachael Ray - Page 3

Yeah I would hate to have to live my life with people always looking for something about me to pick at. It does seem like Rachel gets more than her fair share of that.

What I find hysterical is that the woman is on television with a current show 5 days a week but the tabloids put photoshopped pictures of her on their covers claiming she's gain 100 pounds. It's so fake it's funny and she's got proof they are full of it.

There was one photo they put out that looked like it was just a bad dress for her.

I just wish she would stop with those annoying made up words...stoup, sammies, delish...I know I'm not the only one who feels this way.

My friends and I were at dinner one night and started talking about the products she sells. I asked them, "Would you wear a t-shirt that had Yum-o across your chest?" It not only got a lot of "NO WAY" but got some laughs. Even if it stands for her organization, most people would take it as another meaning.

The other day she was making a quick 30 minute sandwich and said, "Boy, this was easy, you are going to seeing a lot more of these sammies on 30 minute meals." Or something to that effect.

30 minutes to make a sandwich? I can make one in less than 3 and it's delicious.

But it's DAHHHHlish ~ she drags it out

(we've said "delish" for years long before that woman had a show). EVOO is the one I hate. Ugh, we get it, you like to use the stuff.

That's why I don't mind her in small doses. She can overwhelm the senses.

The talking with the hands starts to get to me. She could get some of this stuff done in 15 minutes if she would stop flailing her arms about.

Maybe that's why she gets picked on, there are a whole lot of little things to bug a wide variety of people.

Quiznos is coming out with Flatbread Sammies. Every time I hear it I think of Rachael Ray.

That sounds good. I would love to have a good flat bread recipe. Sam's club has this wonderful shaved roast beef that I would like to put in a good folded flat bread with provolone.

I think its a huge addition to the menu because its only $2. The biggest complaint about Quiznos is the cost, this is a much lower cost offering.

No kidding...why does she say EVOO and then have to say Extra Virgin Olive Oil? That bugs me as well.

I was really listening to the other celebrity chefs yesterday and they can get through their shows without all the needless chatter and giggling (another annoying habit).

I'm sure there are people who don't find any of things annoying and love her. I'm just not one of them.
