Chef Lidia Bastianich, Interviewed by Cooking.com

[baltazar748]

she"s definitely not a croatian. croatian woman are proud of their homeland. istria is 100% croatian thanks to marshal tito and his croatian partisans.

[TheNewMusicNetwork]

there's way hotter, slender, green eyed italian women out their who aren't slobs, can chew with their mouths closed, know italian slang and can cook!

the food channels are just clueless retards that want to spin that italian women are fat asses. phonies all over the place. they either show someone like this pig on the show or they give us some ugly dark swarthy arab mixed pig and call her italian. it's so fucking annoying.

[China1033]

@TheNewMusicNetwork you homosexual faggot, what do u care about women for? your texting aiya guy aka cat girl v better known as cat boy v. i hope you two faggs enjoy texting each other naked pictures LOL...

[tonechaser56]

She has big boobies......................

[LaMomB]

Searched and found interesting information on Lidia.

Istria on the Internet -Gastronomy- Lidia Bastianich

She is a part Croatian, Italian and American.

What makes America!!!!

Learning a few good things from you, thank you Lidia!

[LaMomB]

Wonderful cook and nice to see her cooking with her Mom ( Gramma) and grandsons.

Interesting accounts of her upbringing, born in Pula ...but wonder where was her mom born and what place they lived in?

Happy Mother's Day Lidia and mom and all.

[psYnel]

She is such a cool Italian cook!

You go girl!

[MarcusLeepapi]

She has Croatia in her life.....But yes, she cooks with the Itailian food so well......She is so great........

[Vivalarachie]

Wow, I wasn't aware that she lied about her nationality. Why must she be from Italy anyway? You don't have to be born in a specific country to fall in love with its food and culture. It's unfortunate, but you can't deny that the woman can cook. Italy, Croatia - either way, she makes my taste buds very happy :-)

[THEoriginalRIcHARDS]

i knew she was croatian. croatians love italian food. i like a the pizza :D

[takadi]

Ignore MR917621 everyone, a sad virgin who spent all of his pathetic time putting thumbs down on comments.

You definitely got her, sport!

[MR917621]

Virgin ? Lol, hardly. I can't believe no one cares that a person has profited on being a fraud. Then again what do you expect from a bunch of stupid liberals.

[takadi]

Oh man, you got your own thumbs down mafia too? What a thug, picking on an old woman You must be the kingpin of your street. LOL.

And I'M a LIBERAL?? HAHAHAHA. Hey you know what, you should lobby Congress to make the "Department of Cooking Shows", make sure we keep a watchful eye on criminals like Lidia. How dare she makes a profit on a technicality that no one cares about but some random Croation nationalist who jacks off in his room all day.

See ya!

[volihrvatsku]

He is exploiting her for who she is. A Fraud

You are a waste of human flesh. You should get aids and die.

[takadi]

No one gives a flying fuck about your pea sized country that has contributed absolutely nothing to this world.

[volihrvatsku]

It's O.K. the only thing that matters is that I care about my country. I see you have ron paul on your profile. Instead of wasting your time defending this cow, Maybe you should worry about your fading fast nation. You stupid retarded bastard. Don't reply to me again I don't have time to argue with trash. MR zaboravi za ovo govno.

[takadi]

Croatia what? That sounds like something I just shat out this morning.

[volihrvatsku]

Stupid punk american. In a short time yours will be a third world country. You are a loser and will always be a loser. Your comments are lame. You are a waste.

[takadi]

Yet you still have time to hang around this one video and thumbs down all dissenters to the great Croatia. I'm not sure if I want all four people from your military at my doorsteps with their paintball guns, it might disturb the neighbors, lol

[Rudinka]

Ah Lidia, stop denying you are Croatian. You were born in Pula which is Croatian, your surname is Bastijanic which is definitely Croatian, you are fluent in Croatian yet you never give Croatia the credit in your shows, you still keep insisting that Istria is part of Italy. Get your head out of the sand Lidia. YOU ARE CROATIAN!!!!!

[MR917621]

Thank you. It is nice to see that there are still people around who are not fooled by this fraud.

[takadi]

Get over yourself loser

[MR917621]

Who are you to tell me anything you piece of dirt. I guess lidia is paying your bills. Get lost

[takadi]

What is a Hvarti? Is that some meat pie? A pastry?

[MR917621]

Actually it's Hrvati. It is a slavic tribe. Stop replying to my posts. You are just an uneducated brain polluted loser. You support that other loser Ron Paul ( who is a grassroots type guy ) and try to criticize me who is clearly grassroots. You don't even know what you stand for . You immature piece of filth.

P.S. Keep imagining me jack off, You degenerate faggot

[takadi]

Man, what a fierce political activist, fighting the good fight on a lidia bastianich youtube video. The underground looks strong comrade, LOL. So did you pick up your other stooge from an orphanage in Russia? I'm surprised he can type so well for something that recently congealed in a toilet.

Perhaps its time to start recruiting into your anti-Lidia militia, preferably from the local preschool...Lidia Bastiniach is not one to be trifled with!!! AHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH

[MR917621]

Can't you read? STOP Replying to my posts.

Bye, Bye. Loser

[IvanLongShanks]

Rudinka, to me she is not Croatian but Istra will always be Croatian.

[MR917621]

@IvanLongShanks Well said. Za Srecu Hrvatske-Pozdrav iz Labina.

[TheNewMusicNetwork]

@Rudinka she's an ugly croation that's for damn sure.

[lucadefran]

@Rudinka is there another frustrated croatian woman here? Lidia talks about italian cooking, many parts of Istria was venetians, the influences was from venice above all.

[TheDynoSoar]

@Rudinka shes doesnt make any croatian meals so why should she give them any credit in her shows?

[aprettydress]

i love you Lidia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i love the dynamic between you and your daughter and i learn so much watching your show!

[quarqill]

Watching her show when she cooks really makes me HUNGRY.

[logansGT]

Ahhh.....what food these morsels be!

[cecelianchris]

During her youth, Lidia worked after school in Walken's Bakery with actor Christopher Walken, which was situated on Broadway and 30th Street in Astoria,Queens.

[cavocinis]

Well, maybe because she's Croatian!

[TheNewMusicNetwork]

@cavocinis is that why she smells? i've seen some hot croation tennis women but this fat ugly pig is such a phony.

[honeygranny]

From one grandmother to another.Lidia is the best.

[honeygranny]

From one granny to another.Lidia you are the best.

[honeygranny]

I am a fan of her show.She was discovered by Julia Child.I love the shows in which she has her mother and grandchildren on there.

[MR917621]

Garbage

[JumpBluesRichard]

She's my Italian cooking hero!

[honeygranny]

From one grandmother to another,Lidia is the best.

[Ann21222]

[glil77]
