Kelly Ripa Turns Thanksgiving Dish Into Online Stir
HuffPost
You may or may not agree on the name of this holiday side dish.
Kelly Ripa just turned a Thanksgiving side dish into the main course of online debate.
With Turkey Day right around the corner, the “Live With Kelly & Mark” co-host served up a healthy dose of discourse on Monday over whether a beloved holiday side item should be called stuffing or dressing.
According to Entertainment Weekly, Ripa was quoting a recent article on the proper names for the dish when she set off the debate.
On Tuesday, Ripa addressed the backlash she received over the conversation.
“Yesterday, I simply read an article that I didn’t write,” Ripa explained, according to EW. “So, don’t shoot the messenger. But, the messenger was attacked viciously. I talked about the difference between stuffing and dressing. I mean, forget any political discourse. The real discourse are the people arguing about stuffing and dressing.”
