View attachment 392059Why can she not just give him a chicken dinner... why does everything have to be mixed together? It would have been less work if she is that frazzled.

ETA: she says it is 3 portions so now he has to have reheated frozen veg 2 more times

Ah, so he's come for his weekly visit then...

 

[Lanie]

So tonight's tea was chicken dinner soup is she working with heniz next or willy wonka, just watch the blueberry pie SB? We all know where that ends?

 

[bowiethesdmn]

Jack is only human. She cannot reasonably be expected to exploit the school food issue for her own selfish ends, do all that top secret behind the scenes work, thunderflap AND do lockdown larder. If she tried to do all that once half her social media would just be pictures of her sleeping.

She's such a cunt she needs to outsource to keep up

edit: lol @ thunderflap

Fraus, is there a Bird thread on here? I saw this one today but couldn’t identify it. Any ideas? I tried using Identifly (great bird spotting app) but nothing came up.

RIP x

Lactose intolerant

So...cheese, cheese and MORE CHEESE?

Maybe she had another miracle cure.

 

[Boyo]

Probably because she's been fannying about with it on the hallway floor, before the poor lad gets to eat any.

Exactly. Not only will he be expected to eat that abomination but it’ll be cold too.

 

[Emmapism]

Not necessarily a Caitlin Moran fan but I do like her writing and she does make me laugh. So even if her 'origin story' is exaggerated like Jack's, at least she actually has a talent and some personality.

Jack has no redeeming features which is why she's chasing the kind of success that people like Caitlin have had.

 

[Starsanddaggers]

Sadly apparently small boy needs mushy slop aplenty to appease her Dickens narrative.

I bit SB would just love beans and toast with real butter for once.
As nature intended.

Look at us all, ourselves with our love of Hendo's!

I am both shocked and saddened though that someone reacted to your post with the gipping emoji

Hendo's? Gipping?
O brave new world




On a very slow catch-up at the minute - truly the collaboration has gone down like a lead macaroni on the Linda McCartney Instagram page (though I would actually give the pastitsio a bash)

 

[TurnedUpInTipp]

The whole episode is an embarrassment and a wasted opportunity. You cannot publicly call the MD a ****ing idiot for 'likes' and expect respect in return.

Whatever happened to Camila Batmanghelidjh? Hope no-one is uncomfortable with the question, but some treated her like a Goddess in these issues.

I remember Camila's fall from grace really well.
Went from having all sorts of charity money thrown at her to court case pending.
It was quite spectacular when the media turned on her.

Why do some potatoes look roasted and some only look boiled? Can’t believe this but am I insane, the blue ones aren’t roasted are they? Why are only some potatoes coated in gravy? How can you make gravy out of potato water?

About to do our dinner and this has knocked me for six uno, what IS this?

Perhaps, she has added to a ready meal? Hence the non uniformity?

 

[MooBelle]

Perhaps, she has added to a ready meal? Hence the non uniformity?

That had crossed my mind..

Jack, making something edible? Bought in for sure.

It's here https://tattle.life/threads/jack-monroe-133-neither-a-celebrity-or-a-chef.13766/page-26#post-3524472

My forensic skills tell me that is definitely a dumpling/griddled piece of Linda McCartney sausage.

 

[Captainmouse]

There's a thread on Mumsnet about the worst meal you've ever had, and I'm 99% sure I just triangulated SB's account. Good spelling for a 10-year-old!

Jack_M? Is it you?

Sb come to the light

 

[Breakdance Badass]

Babe, same. My eyes starting opening when I watched the first two episodes of 'Raised by wolves'. Seeing her life there on screen and realising how ludicrous it all was and how the story just seemed a completely exaggerated version of a kernel of truth made me look a bit deeper and read her body of work more critically. It led to the inevitable conclusion that she's as shallow as something very shallow (I'm no good at similes) and hasn't got the foggiest what feminism actually is.

Totally agree it’s sooooo exaggerated!

 

[Raydog]

Satay sauce is the best, I love it so much. I make it Indonesian-style with ketjap manis and vary the rest (sometimes I make it with coconut milk, other times I leave it out sometimes with garlic, sometimes with onion etc. There's so many varieties).

I think Jack tries to emulate it sometimes by popping peanutbutter into her weird noodle creations, but she never seems to add any other ingredients like Ketjap to make it taste good/create depth.

She had a green bean /peanut recipe (not sure what the rest of the ingredients were) that tasted of nothing when I tried it. Probably because she doesn't know how/when swapping things is fine and what ingredients are actually essential for the basics of a dish.

(ETA People, get yourself some ketjap manis for the next time you want to add something to your noodles)

I’ve recently discovered ketjap manis and wowzers it’s transforms a dish

Whoa! MBE?? WTAF?

Glad to see her stringent left wing values upholding the Empire.
