Octavia Spencer offers up poop pie from ‘The Help’ to DOGE

Actress and Alabama native Octavia Spencer is making up a batch of her “The Help” character Minny Jackson’s infamous pies, and she’s offering them up to DOGE employees.

The Academy Award-winning actress took to Instagram on Tuesday to offer the “limited edition” pies up for DOGE employees and its supporters in Washington, writing:

“Bake sale for Washington to ALL DOGE employees and supporters. I need good vanilla from MEXICO and some CANADIAN maple syrup. #limitedEdition pies: Corn and chocolate. Need lots of donations for the “special ingredient”. Eat looooooooots of corn. one time sale😉 fill out The cards below. Who would you send a pie To?”

The post is in reference to an iconic scene in 2011’s “The Help,” during which Spencer’s Jackson — a role she won the best supporting actress Oscar for — bakes a pie for her former employer, played by Bryce Dallas Howard, that includes a special ingredient: her own feces.

The DOGE, or Department of Government Efficiency, is an unofficial agency led by Elon Musk that has been making headlines for slashing funding and jobs from various other agencies that are part of the U.S. federal government.

Since sharing the post, Spencer, who is originally from Montgomery, has gotten plenty of comments asking where to drop off donations.
