Fuckin who?
It’s the in the title, Food Network star Anne Burrell. I don’t watch the Food Network so I’m not totally sure who she is but there’s also a picture in the article and she looks familiar.
Why the fuck are you even here? This woman probably went through a mental hell and here you are being insensitive to her death. At least she was someone unlike you.
Kitchen staff do have a super high rate of addiction. It's almost like they're there through Stockholm Syndrome. I have a friend who was in that and had to GTFO. He couldn't stay in food service and get clean.
White privileged? Certainly! Her family owned a little flower shop in the middle of Pennsylvania. Started her off in a local college for an associate's degree in communication, and they sent her to a local culinary institute when she wanted to pursue it. She graduated from that and showed talent, so they sent her off to a cooking school in Italy. Even moderate wealth begets wealth.
She returned to the US as a sous chef, hopped a couple of places, and got noticed by some well-known chefs. It was a lot of privilege, but she had some pretty decent talent. She moved to teaching at a culinary institute. A restaurant in the Village in NYC recruited her as their Executive Chef. She left there after a year due to the chaos, and was thinking of opening her own place. Food Network, always on the lookout for a bargain, picked her up and used her to run several shows. She had a decent personality. She opened up her own restaurant with the FN money, and it failed out of the gate like most do.
She wrote a couple of cookbooks, got married to someone she met on an online dating site a couple of years ago, was leaving the cooking scene altogether, and trying to edge into improv comedy, when she took a bunch of pills after 1 am and was found dead by her husband. She was 55.
It's hard to discern online personality and editing from real life. She was funny, charismatic. They never made her into the callibur of asshole they normally seem to do to make her palatable to cooking show enthusiasts.
Why are you so angry?
Maybe jealous? Maybe doesn't like women?
Shrugs
Maybe just having a bad day?
Looking back through your comment history You don't appear to normally be the kind of person that would randomly walk into a memorial session about someone that some people like and start trolling the fuck out of them. You having a bad day or something?
That's fair man. I'm a white guy, but my family isn't, and to the extent I can, I get it. I'm sorry, shit's hitting you particularly hard. We're still fighting this trash. I don't know how long it's going to take, but we'll get this shit under control eventually.
She had privilege and a lot of advantages that most people will never have. But she seemed to be an ok person.
If it makes you feel any better, I think in the 2045's whites will be in the minority in the US, assuming we manage to this this fascist uprising under control.
Famous chef. Spouse liked her on Chopped and stuff.
You seem like a racist pos. I'm glad that you seem miserable.
Oh, you're not racist. You just hate people because of how they look... Do you think that's alright or something?
That's humanity in general. I'd say you're as evil or more than the average white person I've interacted with. You're about on par with a white person that uses the phrase "The blacks". So, you're fairly scummy. Maybe try looking in the mirror next time you want to judge a "shitty person".
