Aarti At Verizon
 |
FNH reader Jason was shopping at Verizon when he saw THIS written on a dummy display phone:
A dummy text convo between “Greg Stark” and someone named “Aarti?” Wow. Is Verizon drinking the Next Food Network Star Kool-Aid or what? And why are they talking about the weather? If they were going to use her name, at LEAST they could have come up with a more honest conversation:

Shouldn’t that be “WTB?”…as in “What the buck?” ;)
I guess Indians love sweets and 3G networks….
cracked me right the fuck up.
those bombay sloppies made me wanna puke too.
OMG, I just cracked up! Maybe those raisins in the sloppy joe’s were soaked in some of Aunt Toddie vodka!!
I am an Indian and usually enjoy browsing FNH ! However, saying “I love cumin..whatever, I am an indian” sounds inappropriate. It is almost like being made fun of because of the spices or the food that we eat ! If you think eating cumin causes flatulence, you are misleading others into eating something which can in reality help you digest food better ! If you are still farting, barfing, puking it is because you have been sitting the entire day without moving even a tiny bit and have eaten an atrocious amount of meat ! not because you had cumin or mustard seeds for that matter.
Making fun of food network hosts should be kept different than making fun of an entire nationality !
Um, I didn’t say “I love cumin.” I said “TOO MUCH CUMIN?” because she used a ton of it in her nasty sloppy joes. And where did I say cumin causes flatulence? I insinuated that her sloppy joes were barfworthy, which I consider them to be.
Lighten up, man.
I didn’t the impression they were slamming Indian people. I think their beef (okay, one of their beefs) with Aarti is that she adds cumin to whatever and declares it “Indian”.
Indeed. That’s what I took away from it as well.
Plus, seeing those Bombay Sloppy Joes abominations close-up on the TV screen had a nauseating effect on me. Definitely “barf worthy”.
She’s poking fun at Aarti, not Indian people as a whole. To me, that statement “I’m INDIAN!” echoed Debbie Lee’s “I’m Korean” mantra of the previous season of TNFNS.
Read a little more carefully, Dia. You’re taking the article the wrong way.
Last time I checked, cumin is in most Mexican cooking too, so I don’t know why she thinks it makes something magically “Indian”. But remember – only Indians use to-mah-toes…
yeah? well everything I eat causes flatulance mang.
it doesn’t mean I’ve been lying on my ass wolfing cheeseburgers. it means my body is functioning properly.
cumin is currently an “it” spice. it is pervasive. I love it myself, wife can’t stand it and she’s mexican.
Oh come on. When I read “I’m Indian” it threw me back to “Debbie. I’m Korean”. If you have been browsing this site for a while you’ll surely remember our good Korean friend Debbie.
Lighten UP!
I’d love to see a mock dueling ethnic Verizon text chat between Aarti “I’m Indian” Sequeira and Debbie “I’m Korean” Lee. ;)
Holy Cow! Lighten up!
If you don’t get the joke that was being made, then you aren’t much of an observer on this site. Hell, I don’t even think you read the posted image because why are you talking about flatulence when it wasn’t even mentioned?? I’m lost.
If I may remind you, Aarti was the one making generalizations about Indians on her show. Perhaps you should take issue with that.
