Surely you realize, don't you, that her "gazpacho police" comments had nothing to do with cooking or food? She had no idea what "gazpacho" means, though she might have learned, to her embarrassment, what it means due to the ridicule she received because of her ignorant comments.
Yes, I do. It was just a silly post on my part. It was not meant to be taken seriously. I know she was trying to refer to the Gestapo. From the things she's said in front of a camera I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't even really understand what the Geheime Staatspolizei was.
That's what I thought, and I agree. She might possibly have learned what gazpacho really means by now (though even that might not be a sure thing) but you would probably be right to suspect that she still doesn't even really fully understand what the Gestapo was. She apparently has a very tenuous grasp on history, among many other important topics, particularly basic science and technology.
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

I do not know, I could be wrong but I imagined a possibility that she intended the mistake thinking it was cute and that sort of cute might get attention.

Well, I'm sure she anxious to spin it that way now, whether it's true or not.
