Quantcast Vegetarian StarPaula Deen Food Epithets On “Daily Show” “Fried And Prejudice” (Video)

Paula Deen‘s recent controversy on the use of a racial slur has sparked many satirical skits and commentary and John Oliver from The Daily Show jumped at the chance to do the same in a segment titled “Fried and Prejudice.”

Using the Food Network chef’s history of preparing artery clogging, meat and dairy based entrees and her past health issues with diabetes, Oliver mocks Deen in several ways.

He brings out a correspondent who suggests that given her symptoms, she might have “Type I or Type II racism.”

Oliver said of Deen’s confirmed use of a racial slur:

“The n-word? Which one did she use, because I know it wasn’t non-fat? Boom!”

Before making changes to her diet to combat obesity and Type 2 diabetes, most people knew her better for her use of several other [blank] words.

She’s used enough B-words to warrant a fine from the plant-based FCC: Butter, Bacon, Brioche and Brie.

The S-word isn’t likely to get you kicked off television, but a show where “steak” is mentioned several days a week is one you should turn off if there are small children in the room.

It is highly insensitive that Deen allegedly used these offensive words when discussing black waiters she wanted to hire for a “plantation style wedding.”

But a greater insult would involve forcing these already abused workers to actually eat the dishes they served that were based on Deen’s recipes.

Watch the clip for more hilarity.
