Bad Deal Of The Day: Rachael Ray Magazine Edition
 |
Oh yes. We’ve talked about bad deals here on Food Network Humor before.
First, there was Tyler Florence’s hideously overpriced lasagna dish.
Then, there was Ina Garten’s $33 hot chocolate mix (but it came with a spatula!)
And now, a crazy eBay seller is trying to pawn off a used copy of this month’s issue of Rachael Ray magazine for a Buy It Now price of $1.00 plus $4.99 shipping! Ay Dios mio! The cover price is only $3.99 and it’s still available at local stores. Buyer beware, ’cause THAT’S a bad deal.
(Speaking of bad things, I actually saw this cover at Wal-Mart last night and was sort of horrified by her face on it. Can’t a mediocre home cook appear on a magazine cover without being Photoshopped to high hell anymore? IS NOTHING SACRED! And is she Botoxing, or is there some invisible tape holding her eyebrows and cheekbones in those unnatural positions?!)
(Thanks for the tip, Alex!)

oh my..that doesn’t even look like her anymore! What has she done?
I nearly shit my britches when I saw that on eBay. I can’t tell if it’s a joke or if someone is that genuinely STUPID.
It’s “Ay Dios mio.” (Oh my God.) Adios mio = My good-bye. Which is apt when you’re talking about Ray-Ray here, but in any case. Just fyi.
Thanks – fixed it!
I saw that cover in the grocery store check-out the other day and literally stopped and did a double-take. My first thought was of the Joker, too–the Cesar Romero version.
In the facing rack on the other side was one of those Paula Deen covers with the dead eyes and flat smooth face. It’s like a freak show in the check-out aisle!
Me too. I thought WTF have they done to her face. And body.
It’s like at some point they have transformed into more like cartoon images than human beings on some of these covers :(
Dead eyes, evil grin, and crazy eyebrows… definitely makes her look “Joker-esque”.
Scary. Those teeth look like they’re coming to bite me.
lmmfao
Does she think she looks good in that picture? Apparently so or she wouldn’t have approved it. She drinks out of the toilet and howls at the moon.
*snicker!*
holy crap that’s funny
That’s pretty fantastic. I wonder what I’d get for yesterday’s newspaper.
On a related note, you mentioned in the original post about the $33 cocoa (good god) that you can find Droste cocoa for about $7.
Do you find Droste in any particular store? I know it’s supposed to be incredible (I used to buy their little tubes of chocolates before the one store that carried them stopped selling Droste products, blah), but have never seen it.
I last saw Droste at Cost Plus imports.
In the Chicago area, all of the Centrella food stores carry the Droste cocoa.
I have a strict “no person behind the magazine on the frigging cover” policy. Not that that face is anything close to Rachel’s chubby mug.
Even Car and Driver doesn’t put a driver on the cover.
So, let me get this straight, I now have to resist the urge to get all stabby in the check-out isle while waiting for the sticker shock after all my products have been rung-up? Oh goody!
Whoops! I meant, “aisle” NOT “isle”. I’m completely aware that I don’t purchase my groceries on a small piece of land, completely surrounded by water….frequented by anyone named Gilligan.
The Professor…and Mary Ann…..
Couldn’t help myself….
That’s right, Little Buddy!!
couldn’t help myself either, BOO!
Oh yeah, there’s some serious botox going on in Rachael’s eye area. She’s developing that perpetually surprised expression. And massive photo shop on the chin area.
I have long thought that Rachael Ray resembled The Joker even before seeing this cover.
I don’t know if it’s as much about Botox as it is about PhotoShop. With the right facial-enhancing software it’s amazing what you can do. Lift the brow, sculpt the cheekbones, airbrush a poreless complexion…all of which has clearly been done on this cover. She looks so unnatural, and to be honest, SCARY as hell!
I think she looks even more like the Joker on the cover of this week’s USA Weekend (a magazine/pamphlet which comes with many Sunday papers). That smile… nightmarish! Could swear she’s channeling Nicholson’s Joker. She should fire whomever is in charge of doing the retouching on her pictures. Or, mayhaps she thinks she looks good in these photos we are seeing.
Can someone tell me why this woman is famous in the first place? She even says herself that she is not a cook. Is it because Oprah tells us that she’s a star that makes it so?
Hell yeh I agree.And that voice!!!! It sounds like she constantly needs to clear her throat or something,especially when laughing.She claims to be a cook,it’s baking she struggles with(so I heard the one time I actually watched her show).
That’s some scary shit! Is that really the actual picture they had on the cover. If someone smiled at me like that I’d probably run out screaming thinking they are a cannibal psycho.
LMAO!!!! ain’t that the truth……lol
Also interesting is that she always looks way thinner on the magazine covers than she does on TV. I mean if you are going to put yourself on your mag, I would think you would put your true self out there. If you are horrified of what you really look like, than put a photo of something inanimate.
Rachel has now turned into Marie Osmond!
