Commentary: Paula Deen Diabetes Controversy

I've been a Paula Deen fan for a long time and don't like how she is being criticized for "hiding" her diabetes. I'm sure there are many chefs, cooks, etc. who have health conditions they aren't talking about. Paula Deen believes everything in moderation. She's never promoted cooking and eating high fat/high calorie foods everyday.

And what is wrong with having real food once in awhile anyway? There are so many preservatives and chemicals in today's food. She cooks the way our grandmothers and their mothers cooked, using real ingredients. So, in honor of Paula Deen, I have created a Pinterest board "Paula Deen is Awesome" to share my favorite recipes.

I'd love to hear your thoughts, please post a comment!
