Julia Child, the woman credited with singlehandedly teaching America how to cook, would have turned 100 years old on August 15 this year. To celebrate, WGBH in Boston compiled a series of her funniest quips and set them to Guns N’Roses “Sweet Child O’Mine.”
It’s an admirable effort from a public channel, like PBS or NPR, that’s not particularly known for its Internet-friendly viral content. As a tribute to Julia Childs it’s kind of perfectly fun and goofy like her TV personality. As a potential viral video, there’s something that feels off about it, like it’s not going to make it. Oh well, kudos to them for the effort. [via NPR]
