When the mom finds bananas in the fridge and asks " Bananas in the fridge? What are we Puerto Rican?" They replace it with Key West instead of Puerto Ricans.

shareWatching it on VH1: the Puerto Rican comment was left intact, but other banned words were amusingly substituted: I swear she told him on the plane, "No one cares. You sound like an elfhole."
Maybe it's simply Christmas...
But that line should NOT be deleted: it is an integral part of the mom's character, (hence forming her daughter's insecurities & defenses) is how very inappropriate she is!
I get political correctness, even to the point of the pendulum swinging far the other way to get to equilibrium, but eliminating that remark is knee-jerk, & a misguided one at that.
We are SUPPOSED to get that she is a flawed person, and honestly, I think the character just said things to be outrageous for the shock factor. It was quite an interesting portrayal, actually!
