Or this:
So her mum gave her homemade fruit crumble and didn't even get a reply, let alone a thank-you.
Sorry, Jack's mum, but you'll have to get yourself a blue tick if you want your daughter to respond to you!
If I were Jack, I'd be sharing my mum's baking with everyone on my Twitter and saying 'look how awesome my mum is! She's a much better baker than I am!'.
Jack is a gross human being.

I think she probably read here and realised it's asparagus season and not swede...
Hope her arthritis is alright jumping about like that.
That's really sad for her mum. Her food looks really nice, but clearly doesn't fit Jack's narrative
I have to agree with you. Not acknowledging her mum is a kick in the teeth, rude, mean and shows her complete and utter arrogance.
Give it a few days when she gets a bee in her bonnet over something. The woe is me will come back full pop. In pain, depressed etc. I imagine that will happen on book launch day! May 28th.

Not acknowledging her mum is heartless - no blue tick, no comment, Eve!!
Also, she’s probably spewing that her mum’s baking outstrips hers in terms of appearing edible and well presented.

She doesn't want her sycophants liking her mums baking - takes the glory off Saint Quack.
Plus the fact that she’s tweeting her obv means they haven’t spoken via fone/ text . I’m jacks age and atm speak to my parents by phone every day as they’re both so bored in lockdown
Wow I've had to spend so long catching up, life has really got in the way of my tattle time! Sending belated congrats/birthday wishes to all who've had celebrations.
I am so intrigued to see how she is with Miguel. He is such a natural on camera, unlike her, and while I have some criticisms of him we do love so many of his recipes in my house, he can make recipes work with little ingredients. He is also an untrained cook but seems to understand what works well together
Again, if I had a twitter account I would tweet Jacks mum and tag Jack in saying her baking is really lovely and Jack should be proud her mum CAN BAKE.
The lack of reply to her Mum is heartbreaking. I expect that Jack get lots of mentions but she always remembers to reply to Nigella's... If I were her I'd set up notifications for my Mum's mentions. This to me suggests (my opinion, m'lud) that her Mum probably needs to Tweet her (not text) to try and get a reply through a public forum and on a platform she uses - unless Jack wants something.
I do find it interesting that as a chronic oversharer, she never mentions her siblings. Does she feel annoyed that all the attention hasn't been on her? Or does having a large, close-knit family not fit the narrative?

I feel so sorry for her mum, it's really unkind not to give a reply to her 
Probably don't like her.Oh did I say that.
What can I do with a jar of pickle juice? #jackmonroeslockdownlarder
Hah. Same - babesImagine being an openly gay man working as a bricklayer back in the 80's. Oooop North to boot. I can tell you I had to have skin as thick as a rhino.
I revelled in it though, I gave as good as I got, mostly with whit and sarcasm, and gained the respect of most of the others on site. I think JM likes to think of herself as a pioneer, standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, but she wouldn't have lasted 5 minutes back then. She wouldn't gain respect from anyone with her tactics of retaliating to "abuse" with similar verbal abuse and physical assault.
I could tell you some tales, but not for this thread, there may be children reading!!
Well, not exactly the same, but as an 18/19 year old girl on a building site in the late 90s I got my fair share of 'bants' too. Wit and sarcasm (and rapidly developing a hide like a rhino) were definitely key tools of the trade.
Nail on the head, really is like Lisa.
As i keep saying, i think she's really missed the boat here, she had a perfect opportunity and platform, but she's done everything too late. Nobody gives a tit anymore because everything is back and accessible. Nobody wants her mayo casserole. The swede comment really shows she doesn't have any sort of food education or knowledge. Other people have adapted (Miguel, Shivi etc) and she's trying to ride there coattails to rise herself up.
Following on from my previous comment - i think she is attractive, i think these photos she's taken are actually making her look less attractive.
Today will be a huge challenge for Jack. Presenting - Cooking - Following the self-scripted banter - Responsible for Tech - Avoiding prolonged silences …..
Anyway, back over to you, Bernie …..
Using my graters to wind up my haters
Kick random men, and then just say 'laters'
Pimping my noodles with anything that mings
These are a few of my favourite things!
Swede is in season you absolute nutter
Just go mash it up with lashings of butter
Pursuing Nigella and promising 'No strings'
These are a few of my favourite things!
Treating the disciples to my inner 'Rosie the Riveter'
Please don't tell Stuart, he'll just want to give it her
Thinking of Cactus and wonder why no-one there rings
These are a few of my favourite things!
She has a nasty heart and soul which makes me say she is unattractive.
Brilliant, @Saturn. ! It's only a matter of time before we're on stage at the Grammys, tearfully thanking Jack (but not our mums) for all the inspiration! X
The suede thing I find genuinely shocking, even people with very little food knowledge generally have a vague idea of what veg is summer/ winter
