Local crazylady morning traffic reporter Leslie Horton attempted a holiday snack for her co-workers, it didn't turn out so well.

For the few that haven't seen it and the many who did in disgust. It Burns.

A video showing Global News anchors choking and gagging on a poorly made artichoke dip has gone viral, gaining thousands of likes and shares from people all over the world.

Last week, Calgary traffic reporter Leslie Horton brought the homemade dip to work as part of a week-long segment featuring holiday treats from Global Calgary anchors.

“It didn’t work out. I’m telling you right now, this did not work out,” Horton admitted.

In the video, posted to Global Calgary’s website and the Global News YouTube channel on Friday, meteorologist Jordan Witzel and anchors Scott Fee and Amber Schinkel sample the disastrous dip.

“I thought it smelled like a barn,” Fee said. “Is it edible?"

The morning crew at Global are my favourite crew on air in Calgary, fun to see them get viewed so much all around.

“That’s like all that I can taste is vinegar,” Schinkel laughed. “It burns.”

I still cannot fathom how she ever got a job, or has managed to keep it for all these years. She is so clueless.

I like when the Stamps have a big game coming up and she starts trying out old cheerleading moves on air.

I heard them talking about this on QR77 this morning. My gag reflex is just as bad as that guys'. No way I could even get it close to my mouth. The hell was she doing serving it to everyone?

Understandable. She suffered traumatic brain injuries in a charity dunk tank incident.

I am not familiar enough with Leslie Horton's other shenanigans to empathize with the angst that other people are feeling, but that was pretty damn funny.

I love that while everybody is gagging, she's like, "but I didn't put in any vinegar, do you think maybe something is off?"

She's been a nut job on air long before that ever happened.

Based off that video, would it be wrong of me to say, she doesn't seem like the brightest bulb in the box?

Yes it would be wrong. Now if it was on the tree, THAT would be something.

Head injuries are serious business.

Leslie is great though.

Just the idea of using pickled artichokes in artichoke dip is repulsive. I can't imagine how it tasted.

It smelled like a barn....lol

Sounds like she just threw a load of whatever together and brought it in. If she did this intentionally she is a comedic genius

[You Need a Thneed]

Clearly we need to get the modified recipe to try out the awfulness.

[Fuzz]

probably find any artichoke dip recipe and use pickled instead of regular. Knock yourself out, I have no desire to taste that.

[Schraderbrau]

This news crew cracks me up, I try to watch them in the morning before I leave for work to get traffic updates, but most of the traffic updates are just Leslie twirling in a circle, talking nonsensical, or complaining that the traffic cams don't work.

Im sure I could find a better source for updates but what fun would that be.

[Violator]

That's what happens when you eat a co workers cooking.Probably infested with germs aswell!!!
