Hitler brings controversy to Belgian cooking show

Filed under: Television/Film, Celebrities

AFP reports that a Belgian cooking show, one that details the favorite foods of famous people, is pulling an episode of their program that covers Adolph Hitler’s favorite meal, after news of the episode incited backlash and controversy. Flemish chef Jeroen Meus went to Hitler’s “Eagle’s Nest” hideaway in Southern Germany to cook the “meal of an atrocious man” — a trout dish served with a butter sauce.

The use of “atrocious” doesn’t seem to have been enough for the community, and the show has been condemned for “presenting Hitler as a simple man of the people,” and also presenting him “without any historical context.” Meanwhile, the network says that it “meant to put him ‘in the right context,’ adding that the chef also addressed Hitler’s anti-Semitic policies.”

Speaking as someone who almost didn’t exist because of Hitler, I don’t see an issue with television show discussing his favorite meal, unless the delivery of this information was callous or inappropriate. It’s not like we’re talking about people who hoped to “tell people we are different in the way he [Hitler] was different.”

But what do you think?
