Courteney Cox Shows Off Her Sushi-Inspired 'Alabama Roll'—And It's...Certainly Something

Courteney Cox Shows Off Her Sushi-Inspired 'Alabama Roll'—And It's...Certainly Something
@courteneycoxofficial/Instagram

Former star of the hit show Friends Courteney Cox shared quite the interesting video on her social media recently.

She compared what she called the "Alabama Roll" (an homage to her home state) to the popular sushi roll we know as a California Roll.


Holding up a plate of sushi to the screen, Cox starts:

"This is a California roll."
"We didn't have these where I grew up, but we did have..."

Laid out on the table we see Boar's Head maple honey turkey, Havarti cheese slices, Fritos, light mayonnaise, yellow mustard and Avocado.

Definitely not the ingredients for a sushi roll.

Laying the turkey down first, Cox layers the ingredients down one by one and then begins to roll the turkey up with everything packed inside. Proudly, she dubs her creation the "Alabama Roll."

Cox cuts it in half and jokes:

"It's more of a hand roll than a cut roll, but Nobu should definitely put it on their menu."

As wild as it is to compare cold cuts from Alabama to Japanese cuisine, people really seemed to enjoy it.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
