Jerry Seinfeld sticks up for Jessica, as he should

Jessica Seinfeld, who recently wrote a book (Deceptively Delicious - see review) about how to sneak veggies into kid foodstuffs, has been accused by a previous author of a similar book, “Sneaky Chef” of stealing her idea.

Jerry Seinfeld speaks out about the baseless accusations and considering those books are written about a year ahead of time (and the previous author has enjoyed a spike in her books sales as a result), I say, “Chill out Sneaky Chef”. It’s not exactly a completely unique or original idea. Don’t be hatin’.:

“So there’s another woman who had another cookbook — and it was a similar kind of thing, with the food and the vegetables in the food — and my wife never saw the book, read the book, used the book,” the 53-year-old comedian said Monday on CBS’ “Late Show With David Letterman.”

“But the books came out at the same time. So this woman says, ‘I sense this could be my wacko moment.’ So she comes out … and she accuses my wife. She says, ‘You stole my mushed-up carrots. You can’t put mushed-up carrots in a casserole. I put mushed-up carrots in a casserole. It’s vegetable plagiarism,’ “Seinfeld joked.

    I was disgusted to see Jerry Seinfeld slander that poor woman, Ms. Lapine, on Letterman. Boy, I’ll bet Jessica told him to go salvage her reputation or else. His diatribe was outright slander, and I think that this shows WHAT JERRY IS REALLY LIKE.

    I wouldn’t go see his humorless BEES movie (which is really just a rip-off of the ANTZ movie, done several years ago). I always felt that Jason Alexander really carried Seinfeld all those years.

    Jerry has a cruel streak as seen with his remark about Ms. Lapine, but, if you really know Jerry, it’s just par for the course.

    Go ahead and hide the vegetable. Moms are already sneaking the Ritalin into their children’s diet. Hey, why don’t they hide the homework by calling it playtime. Yeh, math is the new baseball. Give me a break! What great deniers were are raising.

    About the controversial (read: plagiarized?)

    TWO books which are:

    both cookbooks
    shown to the same publisher
    in the same year
    with the same UNIQUE recipes
    on the same UNIQUE cooking concept
    by authors who live in the same city
    with nearly IDENTICAL book covers
    both pitched to OPRAH

    IS JUST A COINCIDENCE?
