Kamala ROASTED After Posting Thanksgiving Collard Greens Cooking Video [WATCH]

Vice President Kamala Harris faced widespread online criticism Thursday after posting a TikTok video showing herself preparing collard greens for Thanksgiving alongside her nieces, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.

The short clip, which Harris shared during the holiday, quickly drew reactions referencing her past comments about how she prepares the dish.

In the video, Harris says, “We are preparing collard greens!” before continuing her holiday cooking demonstration.

The post sparked renewed discussion about remarks Harris made last year while speaking to a voter in Georgia during the 2024 campaign cycle. At the time, she said she used to clean collard greens in the bathtub.

“I have a friend who had a Christmas party, Christmas Eve every year, and she asked me to make the greens for a party every year. And I am not lying to you that I would make so many greens that I’d need to wash them in the bathtub. I’m telling you the truth,” Harris told a black voter in 2024.

During that same exchange, Harris told the voter she uses Tabasco sauce to give her greens additional flavor and said she based her method in part on family tradition. She said her grandmother prepared collard greens with bacon, garlic, and white vinegar.

“My grandma used to put bacon. She used to put garlic. I put white vinegar. So I start with… I slice up My garlic. But first I fry, chop up the bacon and get all that fat going. Then I put garlic, some chili peppers, and then a lot of water, and a little chicken stock. And I let it go for a while before I put the greens in. And then, right? So you get that going and all that flavor. And then I put the greens in for a couple of hours. Then I do vinegar, and then I cheat and do a little Tabasco,” Harris said.

Harris also told the voter that she prefers “Louisiana hot” and added, “Yeah, because Tabasco, I like Louisiana hot. Tabasco has that right amount of vinegar. So that’s how I do my green.”

Harris grew up in Canada with an Indian mother, a detail critics revisited after the TikTok video circulated.

Social media users reacted quickly to Harris’ Thanksgiving post, with many questioning the authenticity of her presentation.

Comments posted across multiple platforms included, “Kamala’s cooking is as authentic as her political career. Show’s over, folks,” and “Those are some wilted ass collards. I won’t even feed greens that wilted to my bearded dragon. No one is eating those.” Another user wrote, “Nothing warms your heart like a good old-fashioned ethnic charade.”
