Food Network Steals John McCain’s Family Recipes
15Apr2008 Filed under: Blogging, Cooking, Don't Be That Guy, Food and Drink, John McCain, Politics Author: Smug Baldy
ABC News is reporting that the section titled “Family Recipes” on John McCain’s official campaign site also appeared verbatim on the FoodNetwork.com website.
The recipes in question – including Ahi Tuna with Napa Cabbage Slaw, Passion Fruit Mousse, and Farfalle Pasta with Turkey Sausage, Peas and Mushrooms — were all credited on the website to McCain’s wife Cindy. Another recipe also appears to be very similar to a recipe of TV personality and chef Rachael Ray.
Not wanting to offend anyone, the McCain campaign decided not to pursue legal action against The Food Network for it’s blatant theft of the cherished McCain family recipes, but instead chose a course of honor, and fired one of its own gifted young interns, 62 year-old Brendon McSwipy of Scottsdale.
The Food Network, home of several famously popular cooking shows including Ciao America with Mario Batali, and Good Eats with Alton Brown, has once again been caught wielding its near monopoly power in the TV-Food world for evil. Rather than hire their own chefs and create original recipes, their operatives we able to break into the McCain family kitchen compound in Phoenix, and abscond with a treasure-trove of McCain cooking history.

like Try this App. The guidance states that food
products from the offspring of clones from any
species traditionally consumed for food are suitable
to enter the food and feed supply. Those who use
only organic food and suggest we’re being poisoned by
“normal” food are using that argument as a smokescreen
for their real pretension.

Sounds like a really good recipe. Food network must really be getting desperate if they are stealing recipes now.

Okay, Chocolate Lovers out there; listen up! Do I have a recipe for you! This great old recipe is from the folks at Hershey’s Chocolate. Chocolate and cherries just seem to go together and this recipe is more proof of that. When you serve these tasty squares to your friends, be sure to have a copy of the recipe handy. They are sure to ask for it. Or you can be secretive, if you want, and tell them it’s one of your vintage recipes that you just don’t share. But be warned, they will be expecting you to make them anytime you get together.
