I remember this..the tomato allergy that became a crusade to help all the tomato allergy sufferers of the world. And then it disappeared, never to be talked again!

Steady on Margot Leadbetter - okay so you like prawn cocktails to the point of expert level, we get it. But! Not too much, cor blimey not on her income. Poor little Jack needs a house, don’t she. Can’t have too many prawns, bless ‘er.
It's one of those very rare allergies that clears up if enough people starve it's host of attention.
Wobbler incoming! 
I don't know for sure as prawns make me
but can't you buy like a large frozen bag of the things in Iceland for like 2quid or something. I do recall seeing them in there once and it was quite a large bag. *Shudders**Omg! I can hear her now. Screeching CANT I HAVE NICE THINGS!!!
You really wouldn’t be given the results of an allergy test at 03:00. The on-call doctor would have 1355267444 more priorities than nodding apologetically firmly at that no-mark.
Edinburgh has it's fair share of poverty too! Davidson's Mains is a prime example, one end of the road full of affluent homes, compared to deprivation on the other end...
I wonder what the charity gig is for this menu? If it's just a printed "here's a £x per person 3 course menu from Jack" then people can pick and choose the elements that they want, however, if it is a catered meal, then you have to play it safe and prawn cocktail is not a safe choice due to a number of dietary restrictions. If you are already having to cater for veggie/vegan options for the main course, then you don't want the faff of having to do a veggie/vegan alternative for the starter. For all the life experience she claims to have, there's a lot of common sense lacking.
Edited to add - as an ex vegan, I reckon just serving one meat product as part of the whole would be preferable to 1 meat plus the lives of hundreds of prawns. Prawn have feelings too y'know*.
* I do not know if this is true.

As a professional food writer and campaigner who is regularly consulted on ethical issues by several major brands I am well aware of sustainability thanks. I just thought I might enjoy a nice Christmas at the end of a terrible year if that's all right with you.
Jack doesn't have any common sense. Instead, she has a wallpaper planner.
Yeah and if some farms on the other side of the world are lost, they can log on to my website and learn how to sustain an entire family on next to nothing. *rattle rattle*
Thank god someone else has said this out loud!
I know you can substitute it for eggs in a cake and apparently you can't taste it...
Seriously though, grim at the thought
I see Jack mentioned Caroline again today which reminds me, are we all in agreement that Caroline is Jack?
This has Jack written all over it! Can you imagine replying to an email like this at work?!

Going to blow her mind here, just been to lidl and they have blinis for £1.50, and lumpfish roe for a couple of quid
She’s deleted the last one. Must have thought it was too snippy and not fitting in with the moment’s nice mood.
That "marauding" is surely for us?
Hi, Jack!!
Hi, Jack!!
I am suddenly very grateful for my fish allegy....
You have converted me into a Caroline truther with this...but then theres companies house showing an employee.
Self employed fraus - are there any common tax avoidance methods or benefits to using a fake employee/registering a friend as admin or anything like that?
Alternatively: can you hire your clone as your admin?
