Rachael Ray's Big Mouth: Fred the Baker Spins in His Grave
Update: Adam notices that Rachael Ray is no longer on the Dunkies website. Perhaps her big mouth cost her a job?
From what we gather, no one likes Rachael Ray's association with Dunkin' Donuts. And they will like it even less when they hear what she had to say about the beverage she is paid so handsomely to promote. A rumor has been swirling on the Internets, starting at New York Magazine, floating to Jezebel, and landing at Boston Daily, that Rachael Ray called Dunkin' Donuts coffee "shit." Here's the offending tale in all its glory:
So a friend of mine was on set last week as Rachael Ray filmed her latest Dunkin' Donuts commercial. According to her, Rachael stormed onto the set and snapped at everyone. Not news, I know, everyone knows she's actually a gigantic asshole. BUT! I am also told she took one sip of her Dunkin' Donuts coffee, yelled “What is this shit? Get me MY coffee,” and would not continue until she was given “her” coffee — i.e., Starbucks.
Potty mouth! Potty joker mouth! Even worse, potty joker mouth who doesn't deserve to drink the nectar that is Dunkin' Donuts coffee!
For the record, New York Magazine agrees, but it's New York and they're not getting paid to sell the stuff.

Hhhhhhhhhhhh-hhhhhhhhhhate Rachel Ray. My mom gave me one of her cookbooks for Christmas. I tried about 10 of the recipes and honestly, they all tasted like Hamburger Helper. And I'm a good cook!
rachel ray is the worst. i wish someone would duct tape her stupid mouth shut. whats with those words she makes up like "sammies" (IS IT THAT HARD TO SAY SANDWICH?!?!) and "yumm-o". the same people who like rachel ray are the same people who like oprah.. the kind of people who need to be told what they like. Oprah tells you about her favorite things so there for THEY ARE NOW YOUR FAVORITE THINGS TOO. Rachel Ray is the same way.. I'd rather have a labotomy than watch her stupid show. It's on at my gym sometime and it makes me want to puke. Rachel Ray talking about "issues"... it's the worst.
I'm partial to the Barefoot Contessa, but thats just me.
