When it first came out that Paula Deen was a Type 2 Diabetic and everyone was bashing her about how she ate...I was really ticked...then I thought OK Paula will turn this around as soon as she get her mind wrapped around it. She has and this is one of the promotions to make people aware of Type 2 Diabetes. Yes, it is sponsored by a company and yes I am sure she is receiving payment for doing it, BUT come on...we would all do the same thing if we had the connections and fame she does...it is that old saying...walk a mile in my shoes...or ye who cast the first stone...I love Paula Deen and she and I are Type 2 Diabetics.
