Seinfelds Sued For Veggie Plagiarism
The Seinfelds have been sued for vegetable plagarism by Missy Chase Lapine:
The suit, filed by cookbook author Missy Chase Lapine, claims Jessica Seinfeld copied her own book that explores how to sneak healthy foods into kids' diets. It also accuses the top comedian of embarking on a "slanderous attack" against Lapine on U.S. national television shows.Jessica's Seinfeld's book, "Deceptively Delicious: Simple Secrets to Getting Your Kids Eating Good Food," was published by Harper Collins in 2007 six months after Lapine's book "The Sneaky Chef: Simple Strategies for Hiding Healthy Foods in Kids' Favorite Meals," the suit said.
Last time I looked in the cooking section in the library all the cook books looked the same to me. I thought all parents cooked the veggies into the pizzas, grated them into sandwiches or yanked open their mouth and shoved all the boiled mashed veggies down their throats while hollering dire threats of tot roasting being the next dish on the menu.
Now did I steal someone's ideas? The concept of tot roasting is definitely not mine, more like borrowed from Hansel and Gretel.
