Disney Has No Idea How to Make Gumbo

If you’ve spent any time at all in South Louisiana, chances are you’ve tried at least one of the regions’ various takes on gumbo. You may have noticed that roux was a prominent ingredient in the classic dish. You may have also noticed that trendy health foods like kale and quinoa were not.

Those are a few of the reasons why countless Louisianans are not happy with Disney’s new recipe for the “best gumbo in the bayou.” The cooking demonstration was posted in a video on the Facebook page for The Princess and the Frog, a 2009 Disney animated film that was set in 1920s New Orleans.

Now, it is conceivable that a “healthy gumbo” could possibly feature things like kale or quinoa. But no roux? That’s just blasphemy.

UPDATE: Disney has taken down their video following widespread outrage from Louisiana natives, which included a White House petition to Stop Disney From Ruining Gumbo. You can watch a (very much edited) version of the video below.
