I did an online search for vegan cookbooks and hers ranks highly. I’d be so pissed off if I purchased a vegan book which included meat, no idea how she’s got away with it.

I’d be so pissed off if I purchased a vegan book which included meat, no idea how she’s got away with it.Agreed, I’m surprised no vegans have called her out. Some can be a brutal lot online and attack YouTubers who just attempted veganism and didn’t try to profit from it
Vegan(ish) was released less than 5 months ago and her new non-vegan cookbook is due for release next week. She really did not give a shit about veganism
It makes no sense at all. And it’s certainly no cheaper than using dry pasta.It's basically 'heat up a tin of spaghetti hoops in the microwave. Add cheese and black pepper'. I've got the giggles so bad.
Meanwhile, with this one - wouldn't it be a whole lot less hassle just to do it in a pan, rather than hauling it in and out of the microwave every couple of minutes?? https://www.panmacmillan.com/blogs/...k-monroe-cooking-on-a-bootstrap-recipe-chilli
Eep! Soz for the queasiness.This made me feel as queasy as thinking of eating mashed potatoes, with poached eggs and crispsSomething about dislocated limbs makes my tummy go all funny
It's so infuriating. But I can't argue with those idiots.Oddly enough I think how vocal vegans can be helped her because it fired up her followers to be just as if not more vociferous in return. She seems to do very well under extreme pressure like that - she goes into keyboard warrior defence mode and loves angrily talking about herself. If that fails revert to something something mental health something trolls something privilege. She knows the buttons the press.
It’s also why these threads confound her - her shadiness being exposed brick by brick is not anything she can counter with angry word salad.
Most of her food could be sucked through a straw. She’s not a fan of texture.That recipeSpaghetti hoops are already mushy straight out of the tin, and she recommends microwaving them for two solid minutes?
I... just can’t imagine what state they would be in after that. Are these recipes tested by anyone at all prior to publication?
Fuck me that’s scathing, are those two separate reviews?!Cooking that would make me depressed.

The only time I’ve had food that I’d imagine is worse than Jacks, is when I was in hospital having my daughter. The Portland it was not. It was seriously grim, you could hold a door open with the omelette.
Prisoners are fed better more nutritious food than that. That’s the thing, if you’re broke and have kids you want the cheapest most nutritious food. Toast and beans has fibre, carbs and protein. Chuck some chopped veg at the side if you have it.
Pasta, pesto and some frozen peas and sweetcorn. Simple is best. If people with low incomes are her target market, then they don’t have the disposable income to try peach curry.
I also take umbrage with her pricing. Yes a portion may work out at £1.20 but what supermarket is selling you 1 tbsp at a time.
Common sense would be to do a book along the lines of :
1) How to build a stock cupboard. What spices are you most going to use. How to use them. Seasoning. Oils and vinegars or alternatives.
2) Highlight the most bang for your buck in terms of food products. iE is pasta better than rice, or potatoes as a carb. Best cheap cuts of meat. The best lentil to buy that can be used in various dishes.
3) Recipes that use these Ingredients to make simple Family meals.
4) How to round up or down how many people it’s for. Is it for one ok do this but you should still make al the stock up. For 8 you should maybe add x for more depth of flavour.
5) how to turn the leftovers into another meal.
6) how to store the food you have and leftover for longevity in order to make money stretch.
No one wants a washed bean. A stew can become a Ragu with some tweaks.
People using foodbanks won’t have what she’s selling. People trying to save money and low income don’t want to waste cash. I wonder if the publishers try the recipes in her book. Her success rate seems to be one or two decent ones per book. That’s 14 over 7 books. It’s abysmal. And we’ll just skirt past the plagiarism because that’s a rant for another day.
At least Peta had the good sense not to list hers.I did an online search for vegan cookbooks and hers ranks highly. I’d be so pissed off if I purchased a vegan book which included meat, no idea how she’s got away with it.

Surprised with that 100% success rate she hasn’t taken on Amazon for slander, he’s set to become a trillionaire out of covid so get in on the action hun. A fresh smeg fridge & another landrover on its way, delightful! x
Same here, very interesting article as something has never sat right with regarding Asia Argento.That article was incredibly eye opening. I’d always been on the believe women side of things, but Asia Argento had always given me pause... I do believe people can have bad things happen to them and have horrible experiences but also still be toxic assholes at the same time.
It certainly seems that way. Why, in Jack’s world, does food for people down on their luck (whether poverty or depression) have to be joyless fuel?Most of her food could be sucked through a straw. She’s not a fan of texture.
Its the woe is me thing, it's catchy.It certainly seems that way. Why, in Jack’s world, does food for people down on their luck (whether poverty or depression) have to be joyless fuel?
Not only that, but where is she storing three kilos of buttery, cheesy mash if not the fridge? Does she know nothing about food hygiene?Who keeps 1 kilo of butter in their fridge? 3 kgs of spuds with 1 kilo of butter. Her blood must look like mud.

You’ve inspired me to have a nose, 6% of them are 1 star which is pretty good going all things considered. The 1 star section is comedy gold though, thank you, very much needed after scarcely sleeping last night. I will say in fairness when you look at the contributed photos there’s a real 50/50 split between people that have made a success of it and people who’ve created legit vomit.At least Peta had the good sense not to list hers.
Some nice looking books there too.

Someone a while ago said they’d read the Veganish book and it didn’t contain meat recipes, the Daily Mail just mistakenly claimed that. The Amazon preview doesn’t show the full contents I think and there’s no bookshops open for me to snoopI did an online search for vegan cookbooks and hers ranks highly.

Yes the veganish book is vegan.Someone a while ago said they’d read the Veganish book and it didn’t contain meat recipes, the Daily Mail just mistakenly claimed that. The Amazon preview doesn’t show the full contents I think and there’s no bookshops open for me to snoop
But regardless, she was on This Morning cooking meat LESS THAN A MONTH AFTER RELEASING A VEGAN COOKBOOKThe DM is full of stupid mistakes but I can understand why they’d assume she was promoting her new book
Jack took to twitter to complain bitterly about that review. It was so odd.
