Michelle Obama will cook with Paula Deen
on her show "Paula's Party" on Saturday
on the Food Network.
On her Food Network show "Paula's Party," Paula Deen has cooked with everyone from Isaac Mizrahi to Donald Trump Jr. On Saturday's show, Paula cooks with Michelle Obama.
According to the Food Network site, the two will prepare a deep-fried Southern dinner of fried shrimp and french fries and share stories about their families' favorite meals.
Michelle tells Paula that Barack's favorite meal is a bowl of chili, and that the first meal she ever cooked for him was seafood gumbo.
The Associated Press reports that Paula has extended an invitation to Cindy McCain to also appear on the show.
In other Paula Deen news... Paula Deen had this to say, in the October issue of Ladies' Home Journal, about ALMOST meeting Hillary Clinton:
"I was going to meet her in North Carolina, where she was campaigning, and I was gonna interview her on the foods she grew up on, and what she and her family like to eat now--just very light and nonpolitical. But at the last minute her people called and said they couldn't do it, I think because of my relationship with Smithfield. [Editor's note: Deen has an endorsement deal with Smithfield Foods, the world's largest pork producer.]
"Smithfield's largest plant is not unionized, so my guess is the union people called and said to Hillary's people, 'If you allow that woman to interview you, we're going to tell everybody you're not for the union.' So the interview was cancelled, and my heart was broken. It was probably political, and that's not my agenda."
