Tuesday 10 May 2022 06:47 PM Selling Sunset star Vanessa takes a swipe at Emma's empanadas trends now
Selling Sunset star Emma Hernan was unable to hide her annoyance when her co-star Vanessa Villela took aim at her vegan empanada business.
The real estate agent, 29, has regularly used the show plug her cheeseburger and pizza flavoured empanadas, which retail at $99 for a pack of the frozen snacks.
However Mexican native Vanessa, 44, made a dig at the 'inauthentic' take on the Latin American dish when she was quizzed about them at the show's reunion.

An empanada is a type of baked or fried turnover consisting of pastry and filling, common in Spanish, other Southern European, Latin American.
At the opening of the show, host Tan France, asked: 'Emapanadas! You know them better than most of these white kids. What is that all about? Are they actually empanadas?
Vanessa replied: 'I mean, yes, because you made them empanadas. But they're not really. I mean, yes and no. But not in a bad way. I didn't mean it in a bad way. In Mexico, we know empanadas another way.'
Emma did not appear remotely impressed by Vanessa's response and smiled through gritted teeth as the camera panned to her.
