Remember last week when Carl Edwards blamed his mom’s cooking for his upset stomach at Texas Motor Speedway? On Friday at Talladega, Edwards told reporters he actually blamed his mother incorrectly.
Oops! Carl Edwards Says Mom’s Cooking Wasn’t Reason He Got Sick At Texas
As it turned out, his motorhome drivers ate the same food without having any stomach problems – and called Edwards’ mother, Nancy Sterling, to tell her so.
"They called my mom and said, 'We ate the rest of that food and we're fine, so it wasn't your food,'' Edwards said. "So I had to apologize to Mom."
Edwards said his mother took the whole thing in stride, though.
“She thought it was pretty funny,” he said. “She won’t have to cook for anybody anytime soon. She’s been offering everywhere she goes to cook for people and it’s funny because they’re like, ‘No, that’s OK.’”
Given the quality of the media center food at some tracks, though, Edwards’ mother might be invited by reporters to cook for them at some point during the season.
