Joy Taylor has finally snapped back at Jason Whitlock after his creepy 'peanut butter skin' remark earlier this year, aiming some savage digs at her former colleague over his weight.
Taylor was recently let go by Fox Sports after nearly a decade with the company in the wake of a bombshell sex lawsuit filed by an ex-employee which accused her of sleeping with co-workers to further her career.
When the lawsuit became public knowledge in January, Whitlock - who previously worked on FS1 - claimed he made sure to stay away from her 'peanut butter skin' to resist temptation at the network in a strange comment which quickly went viral.
Amid allegations she was in a sexual relationship with 'Speak' co-host Emmanuel Acho, Whitlock also shared an old video of the ex-NFL star speaking glowingly about his female colleague and said: 'Kinda hits different now?'
Seven months on from his comments, Taylor has responded in brutal fashion by mocking the outspoken conservative columnist's size while speaking to Cam Newton on his 'Funky Friday' podcast.
'Every time someone brings up Jason Whitlock, I’m like… I can’t believe he’s still with us. I don't think anything works harder than his cholesterol, to be honest,' she said about Whitlock.

She then claimed to have not watched a 'single second' of his videos while stressing that she 'couldn't give a f*** less'.
'He said something about peanut butter, right? What a shock, food...' Taylor added.
Newton then reminded her of Whitlock's full comments about steering clear of her attractive physical qualities 'because I knew what I would have done'.
Taylor then quipped sarcastically: 'Well I mean, he's do desirable...'
After hearing her response, Whitlock took to social media to claim his old colleague is 'out over her skis'.
'Someone who cares about her needs to hold an intervention and get her out of her gangsta delusions,' he added.
Taylor's Fox exit this summer came shortly after the lawsuit brought by former FS1 hairstylist Noushin Faraji, who listed her as a defendant along with top programming executive Charlie Dixon and former host Skip Bayless.
She was accused of using sexual relationships with colleagues, including Dixon and Acho, to further her career in the lawsuit filed by the ex-employee.

The 38-year-old was also alleged to have told Faraji to 'get over it' when she confided in her about claims she was sexually assaulted by Dixon. Taylor has denied all allegations.
Earlier this month, Taylor insisted that her dismissal had 'nothing to do' with the lawsuit.
Speaking on the Hot Mics with Billy Bush podcast, she said: 'I will say that that situation and that suit had nothing to do with the changes that happened at FS1.
'I think from a logical standpoint, everyone can just look at it and see what the changes were and that there were three shows that were cut.'
'It can be boiled down to, for the internet, as 'Joy Taylor is no longer at FS1.' And that's a simple way of looking at it.
'But the reality is, three shows were let go and a massive sports network shifted into a really aggressive, different direction.'
