I bet she writes shit poetry as well.
I don't know if she still does but she did! She went through a phase of posting really, really bad poems and if anyone *dared* pipe up with the tiniest bit of constructive criticism (e.g. just a suggestion, maybe x word might work better in that line), she would fly off the handle and bellow about how she'd been a songwriter for 99 years. I'm sure she included 'poet' in her Twitter bio around that time.

Fellow Bourdain lovers. Parts unknown is coming to Netflix in June
All of them. Rejoice, rejoice.
I’m here for crisps on things. I’ve done Cheetos and Doritos as breadcrumbs in chicken. Spicy Cheetos on Mac and cheese. Mainly ‘dirty’ food. (Hate that expression but you know what I mean). And you cannot beat a roll and crisps. Yummmmmy. Don’t think I’d have them with eggs mind.

Back to the task at hand. Those potatoes are actually Joël Robochon’s. Anthony done a take of them for food and wine magazine.
This is the useless information I retain.

Tony hated celebrity chefs. He hated the commercialism if the food industry and was quite scathing of people like Rachel Ray. Doubt he would have taken to someone with no kitchen experience and a bullshit persona championing themselves as cook of the people. He’d of seen through her in a min.
That’s not to say he was a twat to everyone. Tony was a real champion of chefs and spoke regularly of those he admired.

It’s like she’s plucked his name out because of his battles with addiction (he went from heroin to work. He was definitely addicted to work) and ultimately his death by suicide. It’s crass and insulting to his memory to tie him to her new book.
I can confirm that the only place for crisps in cooking is in a white bread roll .
Butter both halves then cheap cheese slice, crisps, coleslaw and a bit of black pepper if you want to be fancy. Has to be in that order, you get the soggyness of the coleslaw followed by crunchiness of the crisps and then the chewyiness of the cheese.
Yesterday my husband made me one in the wrong order, so I had to eat it upside down (the roll, not me).

Free recipe ,- you're welcome!

Just had a thought (in my weird little brain) - if Louisa's really gone I bet Jack's lies are going to get even more outrageous with no one around to call her out.

Considering this week is Mental Health Awareness Week is it not strange that someone whose new book is supposedly focusing on helping readers with recipes when their mental health is fragile, hasn’t done some sort of promotion of it? Or chosen to donate to a mental health charity? This seems (as someone who doesn’t work in marketing or PR) a really basic thing? Shouldn’t she be on the media talking about it and giving out details/helplines for anyone struggling (as so many are just now)?

Just my opinion m’lud but it strikes me the only MH Jack cares about is her own, and will use anything to cash in!

Broke 47 bones in her foot?

The human foot is a strong and complex mechanical structure containing 26 bones, 33 joints (20 of which are actively articulated), and more than a hundred muscles, tendons, and ligaments. The joints of the foot are the ankle and subtalar joint and the interphalangeal articulations of the foot.


Wikipedia I know but...

Honestly, how difficult is it to peel a clove of garlic? It took her 10 minutes?? Am I missing something here? Or is she really that incompetent?
I peeled 4 (that’s four) cloves of garlic earlier. Didn’t even break a sweat. Where’s my TV show, eh, EH?

Surely she's still small fry for smeg. How is them gifting her a fridge going to help them? Allegedly all her followers are people who still keep milk outside.

Every time I see that photo I hear her promise, "it'll thicken up in the oven". 😆 No it won't. It can't, that's not how it works.
