Deen, 62, was in Atlanta, helping to load a truck for Hosea Feed the Hungry, when someone tried to toss Deen a ham. Unfortunately, the host wasn’t looking, and the ham hit her square in the face.
The man yelled “heads up.” Maybe he should of yelled “duck!” instead.
“I thought it busted my lip, but it didn’t,” Deen tells CBSAtlanta.com. She made light of the whole mishap, saying through laughter: “Ran head on to a hog.”
Paula managed to escape injury.
Later on twitter, Deen hammed up the incident. “I haven’t met a ham that could stop me yet!”
