I am a "hardworker" but I have such a passion for food and cooking, I feel the same way Julia did about it. I don't see it as snobby but as respectful of an art.

[shivanet]

I hope I have half the wits, acuity and gravity that she had at 90, when I'm 70.

[Khymy]

you are right she wasnt a snob at all she is talking about "specialization" which is admittedly out of fashion now,. She was interested in the taste of food and cooking at home for pleasure not celebrity or to win a competition Really some of the stuff on your food channel show which is just been broadcast here is pure junk. i mean the idiots who decorate those ridiculous cakes!!. Wake up america

Look after this national treasure of yours. she was magnificent at 90.

@today441 to let your statement go unchallenged would be a slap in julia's face.

one should temper one's comments with the fact she was 90 or so when this interview was done & not in the spirit with which she lived her life.

i'd love to see your demeanor should you reach 90 if, of course, you're a ground breaking personality of the 20th or 21st century.

i suggest you watch bea arthur, jean stapleton et al, who later in life endured the same interviews. they were understandably just as snobby.

2-19-11, Well I've stayed to the end of this loooonnnng interview and must say that little by little ever so slowly she transformed into a "snob"! I've lost a lot of respect for her down to earth persona which doesn't exist as it comes out of her mouth. She seems to have no feeling for the hardworker's who don't have the time to treat her treasured recipes as she would - so in her mind they don't count. That sound's like she is real a class snob, "how dare you treat my recipe lightly."
