Denver Post: You Hick Southerners Will Just Have To Do Without Your Fried Foods

Proof • June 29, 2008

I didn’t know that we here in the south were the only ones who like fried foods, did you?
The clever lads at the Denver Post apparently have some information on the subject because they’re warning us Southerners that there jist ain’t gonna be no fried foods at that there Demukratik Cunvenshun:

DENVER — Warning to Southern delegates to the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver this August: it will be a no-fry zone.
As part of the effort to make the August 25-28 convention the greenest ever, the Democrats’ guidelines for food catering include one that strikes at the heart of Southern cuisine: no fried food.
No fried chicken. No fried catfish. No fried green tomatoes. No fried okra. No fried anything.

Durn. And if’n that ain’t enuff, they’re tellin’ us it’s fer our own durn good:

In promoting healthy eating habits, the Democratic guidelines say every meal should be nutritious and include “at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, purple/blue and white.”
“It’s the new patriotism,” says Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper, the driving force behind the greening of the Democratic Convention.

Here’s a note to the folks at the Denver Post: People eat fried food everywhere. Not just in the south. You sanctimonious bunch of elitist liberal pricks. Oh, and by the way…..how about telling your liberal democratic mayor that choice is a good thing instead of ramrodding his views down everyone’s throats, even to the point of telling them what they can and can’t eat?
Anybody want to bet that the Denver Kentucky Fried Chicken outlets do a booming business during the convention?

David: You need to remember that Democrats are the party of “Choice“! They enable you to make the “correct” choice by taking away all the others!

Is there more proof for this danger than global warming?

No there really isn’t.

Hot dogs are good. But I’d hate to have anyone tell me that I can’t have a seafood platter with all those evil fried things on it….fried shrimp (big ones from the Gulf), fried fish, (fresh, never frozen), fried oysters (fried for just about a minute), fried soft shelled crab (just can’t be described)with jamablaya…

Yeah, I was marvelling at the science behind nutrition by color, and a hot dog was the first thing that came to mind. Jambalaya or a muffuletta by themselves would probably qualify, but a MD chaser would seal the deal.

I suppose one could get around the frying prohibition by saying stuff was either sauted, or cooked in a wok – either would appeal to those of community based reality because the latter is nigh ironclad being multicultural and because we all know everything eastern is inherently better, whereas the former has a europeon cachet for that snob appeal.

I wonder if you can deep fry arugula – that would be a hell of a quandry for them.

I had a delicious red, white, green, brown, pizza with a golden beverage for supper, does that count?

Why does this overt attempt to control a major aspect of our lives, not draw the attention of the ACLU and others who work for the expansion of personal freedoms?
The left’s whole agenda for ages has been lying to the masses. They know their ideas are most times bad for society, but they do whatever the mindless masses want irregardless of the consequences. That is not a party that needs to be in power.

In promoting healthy eating habits, the Democratic guidelines say every meal should be nutritious and include “at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, purple/blue and white.”

Because, we all know that Democrats are like children, with no will power of their own, with insufficient self control to choose in their own best self interests.
Lucky for them, they have an authoritarian elite who will make the right choices for them!

I, for one, welcome our new culinary overlords.

Hot dogs are good. But I’d hate to have anyone tell me that I can’t have a seafood platter with all those evil fried things on it….fried shrimp (big ones from the Gulf), fried fish, (fresh, never frozen), fried oysters (fried for just about a minute), fried soft shelled crab (just can’t be described)with jamablaya and French bread on the side, all washed down with an ice cold beer.

Okay…let’s assume for a minute that we Southerners eat more fired stuff than the good folks in Denver (not including the sanctimonious pricks at the Denver Post)….are there any stats that they live longer?

And if so….how much? Because if at the end I’d have to trade green color-of-the-rainbow foods for the above described seafood platter for the sake of a few months, well, guess what?

I wish I had the wherewithal to sit outside the Pepsi Center with a couple of deep fryers offering up all sorts of fried food for free in protest.

Along with some Coke(TM).

What we can expect in spades if Obama gets elected and the Dems control congress. Ironic how liberalism eventually degenerates into totalitarianism.

So, from this, a hot dog on bun with French’s mustard and pickle relish, washed down with a grape NeHi is the ideal meal.

I, for one, welcome our new culinary overlords.

There’s no evidence that people eating a moderate amount of fried foods are any less healthy than the health nuts.

They want to force their choices down everyone’s throat.

Too bad the tomato salmonella outbreak happened five months early.

The thing that is most amazing to me is these fools are SERIOUS! Eat by Colors?

And WHY is fried food bad again? Haven’t people been frying since there was fire?

Is there more proof for this danger than global warming?
