paula-deen-ham

Celebrity chef Paula Deen got more than she bargained for when she went to Hosea Feed the Hungry & Homeless to make a donation on behalf of Smithfield Foods in Atlanta.

As hams were being tossed down a relay line Monday morning, an eight-pounder whacked Deen in the face.

The errant ham “hit me full long in the face and ’bout knocked me cuckoo, but I’m fine,” a laughing Deen told WXIA-TV. She iced her nose to keep down the swelling.

The Food Network star was on hand to donate 25,000 pounds of protein before Hosea Feed the Hungry’s Thanksgiving dinner.

She took the ham assault in stride.

“Ran head-on into a hog,” she told WSB-TV.

    Takes one to know one. So what happened to the other ham?

    “Say, what kind of ham was that?”
    “A celebrity chef.”

    And they say, “When pigs fly…” This is what they meant.

  5. david says:

    If you hams collide, do they cancel each other out?
