Rachel Ray Disses Dunkin Donuts
If Dunkin Donuts offered ME money to shill their crappy-ass coffee, well I’d drink that stuff until my pee was a regular automatic drip. But not Rachel Ray, NOOOOO, she’s too good to drink the coffee of the people who help pay her bills, and put frumpy clothes on her back.
I feel stupid even covering this story, because honestly there really ARE more important things in life than bratty celebs biting the hand that feeds them, but since Rachel Ray is so incredibly annoying, grating, irritating and dumpy, I gave in to my inner beeyotch and went for the easy target.
According to New York Magazine’s “Grub Street” sources caught Rachel having a celebesque moment:
So a friend of mine was on set last week as Rachael Ray filmed her latest Dunkin’ Donuts commercial. According to her, Rachael stormed onto the set and snapped at everyone. Not news, I know, everyone knows she’s actually a gigantic asshole. BUT! I am also told she took one sip of her Dunkin’ Donuts coffee, yelled “What is this shit? Get me MY coffee,†and would not continue until she was given “her†coffee — i.e., Starbucks.
The article also suggested perhaps it this type of “uppity” behavior which has lead to a mass exodus from her magazine, Everyday With Rachel Ray.
On a more personal note, if I want a damn donut I’ll go to Krispy Kreme to get my lard on, but everyone knows you don’t go to Dunkin’ Donuts for their coffee. Or the donuts I guess, but definitely NOT the coffee.
This is a perfect example of the lack of integrity within our advertising and marketing world. These celebs will whore themselves out for a buck, even if they don’t believe in/or use the product themselves. WTF?
Why is Rachel Ray famous? Can anyone explain this?

Rachel Ray is famous because the same people who watch her also watch Oprah and Dr. Phil.
Personally, I can’t STAND the little troll. And I so agree with you about Krispy Kremes…the Holy Grail of donuts! (although there is a little store in my town that makes an applesauce donut to die for)
I always knew we were long-lost sisters!!!

Aw, c’mon — I like Dunkin’ Donuts coffee. In the building where I work, it’s the best coffee in the food court (and that’s WITH a $tarbuck$ in the atrium as well!).
I live in the south, but Krispy Kreme scares me. I think it’s just because I know if I take one bite, I will so cross over to the doughnut dark side!

I agree with crazymom…D&D coffee soooooo much better than StarBucks overpriced, tastes burnt, snooty coffee. What is the deal with Krispy Kreme? I find them to be nothing special.

Agreed, Rachel sucks completely. I absolutely hate walking into my Dunkin Doughnuts and see a poster about 11 feet tall with Rachel saying “Yummo”. Does anyone realize that Oprah has put a boatload of money behind her production? She also almost completely killed the Food Network. They started off as a decent respectible channel with real chefs and those moron execs started bringing no talent crap like Rachel, Giada, and Paula Dean.

David: Hallelujah! Somebody who thinks the way that I do! I’m so sick of hearing people in my family talk about how wonderful Rachel and Paula Deen are. Disgusting. I’ve all but stopped watching FN…the only things good left are Alton Brown and Unwrapped. They even took away the original Iron Chef series!

DD coffe RULES!!!!! If you like smmoth, rich not over roasted coffee, DD is them place. Rachel Ray, being the crude, little, insecure troll that she is needs to tattoo Starbuck$ on her forehead because without being an empty staus whore, she could not be anything else.
Poor thing. Someone, please: get her a Coolatta, quick! (psst–tell her it is a Frappaccino, though)
