Ugh.. Emeril calls them freedom fries

[Qanisqineq]

He just said it. I've found the Food Channel to be a very relaxing change after watching all the politics and war on CNN/MSNBC/C-SPAN. Too bad I don't cook.

Just thought it was kinda funny. First time I have actually heard anyone use that.

1. Freedom Fries were sooooooooooooo last year

:eyes:

[flamingyouth]

2. Now we've moved onto Freedom Rice

[LynneSin]

[Bertha Venation]

6. someone posted "freedom fly" the other day

;)

[flamingyouth]

10. "There is a rose in Freedom Harlem..."

Ah, see how much better that sounds?! :D

[texastoast]

11. Is It Freedom Rice Yet?

Or is shrubito not ready to go there with Spain?

[eyesroll]

4. Was he joking, or serious?

A couple of months ago, we went to this hot dog place. Sammy's Taste of Chicago in West Allis, WI.

They had "freedom fries" on the menu. "Freedom fries" was what the receipt said. They had a "Doyle Sandwich" (Doyle is the Democratic gov. of WI) -- "Pure pork -- all parts, including the SHAFT -- $1.99 normally, but $5..99 because of increased property taxes." They had all kinds of GOP and pro-war crap on the wall.

Needless to say, we didn't notice most of this until we'd already ordered, and we won't be heading back there anytime soon.

7. I wasn't paying much attention, but

he was making potato recipes. I overheard him say something about how he was going to make freedom fries next. Very nonchalantly.

5. Emeril is a hack.

I can cook better than that guy, and I can do it without annoying everyone within earshot. :eyes:

[curlyred]

8. that makes two of us

He is by far the most annoying person on the Food Network. Trite and hackneyed phrases are his stock in trade. What a moron.

Obviously a right-winger. :)

[lowreed]

14. Thank You!

His 15mins are pretty near up.
He's jive.

[kanrok]

9. Tell Emeril to kiss my freedom ass

n/t

[Screaming Lord Byron]

12. Yeah? So what. You pinko-liberals got a problem with that?

That's because you hate America.
Why don't you go back to Russia?

[AJ BENDER]

13. If The Dutch Pull Out

Can we call it Freedom Weed !

:silly:

[annagull]

15. Hope he's not planning to go back to New Orleans any time soon

He might get lost in the "Freedom Quarter".

[Qanisqineq]

18. HA! I never thought of that

That is cracking me up

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

21. And comment on the "Freedom Moss" growing on the trees

[Robb]

16. I can't watch him handle food....

...his hands go from his hair, to the food, to his nose, to the food, back to his hair, back to the food. :eyes: Guy needs a bleach bucket.

I have strong suspicions about what, exactly, the "Essense of Emeril" is.

[Qanisqineq]

19. Ewwwww

Nasty thought. But I did see him make it a couple days ago in response to emails asking what it was. I've just recently "discovered" the Food Channel and now I'm kind of addicted.

[SmileyBoy]

22. As Mario Cantone said, "It's Angel Dust."

That's what it is...:eyes:

[President_G_W_Bush]

17. He likes to make things go BAM too!

Kick it up a notch! :nuke:

[Kickin_Donkey]

20. What's makes it ironic is that he's a Cajun ...

with a French surname and whose ancestors are French.

Emerial LaGaff, anyone?

[tishaLA]

24. Actually he's Portuguese

[tishaLA]

23. It's probably a rerun

I hate Emeril, but I will let him off the hook this once.
