As seen in a tweet from Patriot Takes, Marjorie Taylor Greene has a podcast called “MTG,” on which she speaks her mind about current affairs. Recently, her thoughts turned to what she believes is a government plot to play Big Brother over private matters like making “bad” food choices, including cheeseburgers. Greene then made a jaw-dropping claim.
“Bill Gates wants you to eat his fake meat that grows in a peach tree dish,” Greene said. “So you’ll probably get a little ‘zap’ inside your body, and let’s say, ‘No, no! Don’t eat a real cheeseburger, you need to eat the fake burger, the fake meat from Bill Gates!'”
Granted, Greene does hail from the Peach State, but Twitter still had a field day over her flub of “petri dish.” Among the representative’s comments was this one: “If someone serves me meat Bill Gates grew in a peach tree dish, I will *immediately* call the Gazpacho Police. Don’t even think about it.” Humorist Paul Rudnick added in part, “Interestingly, Fake Meat is Trump’s Tinder name and he’s just opened a golf course and country club in Peach Tree Dish, Georgia. Coincidence? I DON’T THINK SO.”
It’s unlikely the congresswoman will ever see these comments, as Greene was permanently banned from Twitter for spreading misinformation about COVID-19 (via The New York Times). Despite her absence from the social media site, the video of Greene speaking truth to Bill Gates’ “peach tree dish” burgers has over three million views, as of publication.
