Linda McCartney Foods have really effed up by asking nowhere-near-vegan Jack Monroe to work with them and ignoring customers who are passionate about Veganism is outrageous. There are a lot of very valid concerns on their Insta page and I honestly think they don't have a clue how to handle them and so are ignoring it all. Lesson learned though, do your research next time LMF! That sneaky twat now throwing in tweets about plant milks and cheeses on Twitter to try and pull the wool over people's eyes? Unbelievable, or rather, believable.

In other news, I have tried probably 6 or 7 vegan cheeses overall and dislike them all. Oat milk is the king, although I would never have it in tea so stick to Pukka teas

I saw that @ theonlygirlinthehouse (love her) is doing an ad for simple recipes using canned food, which seems right up jack's niche. I wonder if she's been approached for it or will we get another Twitter tantrum because she's been overlooked despite it being her LIFE'S WORK (hard to type that with a straight face)

Second hand bottom oats? You could probably sell them...and then write a book about it.

The bath salts are a preview to her homemade moisturisers - one will be lard based and the other from the oils she saves. Surely the stuffing mix will make a reappearance too in some way.

Hang on... salt and hot water, oils rubbed into their skin, filling them up with cheeses...

if she suggests sprinkling herbs on yourself next then she's actually trying to cook and serve the squiggles

As you know I’m a lifelong vegetarian, and I’ll just annoy the vegans with my vegan tourism, but I like different alternatives for different things.
Latte- oat milk
Tea- almond
Cereal- soya

I used to like the value cheese spread from the supermarket as it was bulked out with coconut oil, making it an ideal “cheese-reducer” product. All been withdrawn now, though.

A great big handful of sage in your Thai curry
A load of rosemary in your tabouleh
Some tarragon in your Pimm's
lots of basil to make a crust for rack of lamb
Add coriander to your lasagna

FFS.

she's definitely suggested swapping parsley or basil for coriander in italian food before which is ABSOLUTELY MENTAL especially as she apparently has a genetic aversion to coriander?!

On a slightly unrelated note, i have always thought that tarragon actually tasted quite similar to thai basil and could probably be substituted in a thai curry? i'll see myself out...

Hi gang,

I spotted a top tip recently and I've decanted 6 tubs of mixed herbs into an empty milk bottle. I now have 6 empty herb tubs, has anyone got any ideas on what to do with them?

Fill them with FREE left over oil from olives/fish/sun dried tomatoes.

Add FREE lavender, eucalyptus or rosemary from the garden/neighbours/roadside.

Result:6 FREE room diffusers

I think you've finally uncovered the inspiration for this bizarre German hausfrau cosplay moment...

They are probably better ideas than Jack could come up with, to be fair to you.
