According to reports, which spread faster than melted cheese on Fieri’s ‘Mac N Cheese Bacon Burger,’ Goldberg felt “personally affronted and professionally targeted” by the ban. Fieri’s audacious move had left a taste in Goldberg’s mouth more bitter than a spoonful of his ‘Atomic Horseradish Sauce.’
In the world of ieri, where excess is the secret ingredient, Goldberg’s lawsuit seems to fit right in. As the EGOT winner herself declared, “In a place where extra cheese is the norm, I thought I’d add a little extra drama.”
But where does this leave Fieri? The man who makes an art out of barbecued meat and sauce-slathered delicacies seems to be on the griddle himself. Amid the sizzling news, Fieri, always one for the dramatic, said, “I can handle the heat. I’ve been in hotter kitchens.” This begs the question, is there anything hotter than a lawsuit from an Oscar-winning actress?
