We have to remember, celebrity or not.......she is still a person and has to deal with the same things anyone else does. To me, people are being a little harsh. Maybe she should be promoting and preparing healthier food on her shows, but I still love to watch her and we can always make substitutions for ingredients she uses in her recipes.
