Celebrity chef Rachael Ray has been caught in a storm of controversy for a fashion choice made by a stylist during a Dunkin’ Donuts commercial shoot.

The advertisement that appeared on the web featured the talk show host in a fringed black and white scarf that resembles the black and white checkered Kaffiyeh which is the traditional Palestinian scarf.

The similar scarf represents murderous Palestinian jihad and has been worn by Muslim terrorists during hostage videos. Rachael Ray wearing the scarf in the ad suggested to some the symbolic support for Muslim extremism and terrorism.

Dunkin’ Donuts has made the decision to pull the ad and has stated that “absolutely no symbolism was intended.”

    Although I agree with your point of view I would appreciate those leaving comments to refrain from swearing if possible. I wouldn’t leave a rude comment on your blog Wiggy.

    Ridiculous! I am angry to begin with because though jihads may have worn this type of scarf, thousands of normal, innocent people have worn this type of scarf as well. The thing that truly makes me furious though, is that Dunkin Donuts, by pulling the ad, is basically agreeing with these people who stereotype.
