[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]*laughs in Alison Roman*[/quote]

As she should. I was disappointed and offended by Roman’s comments. She paid a high price for those comments and essentially torpedoed her career. I felt badly for Teigen at the time, a producer of Roman’s show. Teigen seemed genuinely stung and understandably so. But what a hypocrite, wow. History of bullying and harassing women. No, thank you.[/quote]

roman’s comments were totally overblown - cancel culture at its worst. but in teigen’s defense, she actually didn’t join the cancellation attempts. but anyway last laugh is on tiegen because her recipes suck, but [b]alison roman’s are genuinely really good[/b]. roman’s cancellation was part of a broader wave of cancellations within the food media world and of course hers was more bitter and vicious because it’s always easier to go after a young, successful liberal white woman for saying something wrong than it is to address actual issues. her cancellation was about social media mobs and jealousy. [/quote]

Absolutely not. Her food is bland and boring like her. [/quote]

All of the recipes of hers I’ve made have been really good. I cook and read recipes a lot so I know what I’m talking about. But thanks for confirming that this is about attacking her personally and not about the bona fides of the situation. Alison Roman losing her job because of some snarky musings vs Teigan’s vicious harassment of a vulnerable teen are completely different scales. [/quote]

Let's not get into Alison Roman. As an Indian woman, I find her appropriation of ethnic food into random "stews" pretty gross (and the recipes suck, too)[/quote]

anyone can make a chickpea stew. basic ingredients aren’t “appropriation” - if that were true we couldn’t use tomatoes, potatoes, or black pepper in the US. but yeah sure, Alison Roman publishing a stew recipe with garbanzo beans and coconut milk is totally the same as online bullying of teenage girl and telling her to kill herself.[/quote]

and btw, the stew has like 16,000 5-star reviews on the NYTimes websites. She’s a good recipe writer. That’s in fact why people attack her, because social media hates successful young women or young women who attract attention at all. [/quote]

Bland people like bland food. Is this a foreign concept to you?

Plenty of successful young women. She wasn’t original or interesting. [/quote]

the fact that you call it “bland” kind of reinforces that she wasn’t trying to literally duplicate an Indian recipe- it had a different flavor profile. But thanks yet again for showing thid is about being mad she is popular in the wrong way, and not about anything she actually did. [/quote]

Indian poster here, I'm not the "bland" poster. Anyway, isn't this a thread about Chrissy Tiegen?[/quote]
