Terrorist-loving Dunkin Donuts enthusiast Rachael Ray has won some street cred from admitted hater Anthony Bourdain, who's experiencing some cognitive dissonance over Ray's appreciation for glorified dive bar band the New York Dolls. In a recent Facebook blog post, Bourdain made an about-face from his earlier characterization of Ray as a "bobblehead freakazoid," all because she booked the Dolls for her SXSW show. Bourdain opines: "It is an article of faith with me that the Dolls were one of the greatest, most important, criminally neglected, wildly influential bands in the history of well... the freakin’ UNIVERSE!! This development... has caused me no small amount of confusion, panic and misery. I don’t know whether to go out and shoot a puppy, or send Rachael a fruit basket. It just does me no good at all to think of Rachael as a Dolls fan. It’s really only a matter of time now until my daughter looks up from her grilled cheese and says 'Yummo!!' " According to the Daily News, Ray responded by sending her fellow food celebrity a fruit basket of her own, with a note pleading with him to please spare the puppies.

Doesn't change the facts: Cheap and greasy.
And her food is even worse.
And how bad can you be in the kitchen that you have to get coffee and food from Dunkin Doughnuts?
Just a wild guess here but perhaps they paid her a lot of money.
But, her claim to fame is cooking. I don't know how much she gets for her talk show, but in a better world people would stop buying her cookbooks if she makes commercials saying she can't make her own coffee.
So when does Bobby Flay tell Anthony Bourdain that he's an overrated, pretenious douche? See what's happening here? It's a vicious cycle (although part of me eventually wants to see a Guy Fieri - Adam Richman feud).
LOL, that is the Ad picture that MIchele Malkin attacked as supporting terrorism due to the Paki scarf.

Boil them both in EVOO
because they're both fabulous with pita bread dipped in roasted red pepper hummus.
"I don’t know whether to go out and shoot a puppy, or send Rachael a fruit basket."
ah...there's some of that classic Bourdain sass.
screw the haters.
I propose a new dancing w/ the stars couple:
Bobblehead Freakazoid & Fanta Pants
LOL...who's who in that scenerio?
If this were a romantic comedy, Bourdain and Ray would fall in love with each other.
Apparently somebody must enjoy her show and her cookbooks. Hardly worth losing sleep over. Luckily my TV comes with a remote that lets me change channels.
"...Anthony Bourdain, who's experiencing some cognitive dissonance..."
Couldn't have happened to a better person.
She did anything to get famous. Slept her way to the top & shes proud. Thats why she got Mugged & beat when she first came to the City. haa hha
Anthony'z The Man- Don't Be Jealous People
Ah yes, Anthony Bore-dain...the guy who was surprised to find interesting ethnic food in Queens. Poser.
Speaking of the New York Dolls, Johnny Thunders isn't dead. No joke, he lives in Flushing now and uses a new name.
That's a very sick rumor.
I hope that's just a twisted joke.
He was murdered by drug dealers or overdosed in New Orleans in 1991. He didn't disappear. An autopsy conducted by the New Orleans coroner confirmed evidence of advanced leukemia.
Right, he died of an overdose/leukemia/was murdered. /sarcasm
I'm not kidding, he's alive and well. I'd say more but the guy obviously wants his privacy.
I bet he secretly admires her and her, um, big "ham sammie". This is some kind of celebrity chef butt-sniffing foreplay that's sure to result in an "Iron Chef" romp at a Fairfield by Marriott featuring "pineapple" as the key ingredient.
Here's another recent quote from Tony about Rachel (and 17 other cooking shows)
http://tv.msn.com/culinary-picks-and-pans/?photoidx=12
Anthony Bourdain: Rachael Ray now is a talk-show host. My wife watches her, I hate to admit it. She's America's little sister, because she's a likable person. I think people respond to her because of her personality and not her cooking, which is pretty damned awful. She's very nice, and I base this on no inside information: She's big now, like Oprah big; the sooner she stops cooking, the happier we'll both be.
