Did anyone else see this? It’s bloody (scuse the pun) amazing. Why isn’t Jacktavist all over this, leave the kickyball for the grownups. Poverty isn’t just about rinsing beans, this is a huge problem for poor girls and women and she should be shouting her ouchy mouth off at Boris/the government about the price of sanitary products. Got to love Lidl got to love Ireland - this is so impressive let’s hope it’s adopted worldwide.

It's the authentic way to spell it, Hackney is all gentrification station, hipster central where everything is artisan and authentic, lol!!!

There's a bagel deli on Brick Lane that's infamous as it was 24 hours and delicious

There are two and they both spell bagel beigel as they are decades established 24 hour beigel bakeries. Tourists have no idea of The difference between them. There are differences but they are both delicious.
ETA I want a proper beigel now, those ones from the supermarket aren’t boiled I can tell

She didn’t even call him a liar! She said in that interview he was disingenuous and then pinned a tweet saying she’d called him a liar with a video clip proving she didn’t and said they’d swiftly wrapped up as she was so shocking! I think she actually believes the stuff she says.

Liar lies about lying, mistakes a random account for the Prime Minister. All in a day's work for Jack Monroe

Beigels are the old-fashioned, proper versions of bagels. Jewish people, and some North Londoners will pronounce it that way. They are made slightly differently to bagels -- I'm sure Jack will be able to explain the difference, being the food expert and all.

But she can't claim a Jewish identity because she already pissed off the community a couple of times.

She's done it cos she wants someone to correct her so she can 'Well ACTUALLY...', I reckon. And then we get Jewish Jack and no one wins, least of all the Jewish community.

Also, major Scrappy Doo vibes from the 'I would have sworn/cursed if asked about Boris Johnson and kicky ball'.

Also, the famous 24 hr shop is known as The Beigel Bake. Their bagels are so good! I haven’t had one since last summer, but they really are 👩‍🍳💋

They did contact Jack...knowing they suffer from mendacious foot in mouth disorder. They just wanted a Boris bashing quote

That's true. Get a quote from good old rentagob and hope Jack says something controversial enough to go viral. Yay journalism.

The Jewish community have won today. They have an excuse to avoid Jack's pork belly.

Why are they spelling bagel that way? Is it a thing. I am a dense pirate.
Click to expand...
it is a thing which depends on whether you have litvak/Polish or Russian Ashkenazi roots. Different. pronunciation/transliteration for same concrete doughnut (more Russian Jews ended up in New York, then there was Friends = bagel became culturally dominant around the world, but in the East End of London beigel came first.

I saw that and thought she’d be disappointed she’d jumped on the Tile train (pun unintended but I’m keeping it) right before Apple brought out a version to go with her Mac, iPhone, numerous AirPods and Apple Watch 😂

Imagine sitting down to dinner in mixed vegan/omni company. I get a big slab of pork belly full of fat and protein, you get a lump of jackfruit with some spices and some weird garlic jelly thing. It may look superficially similar (if you're Jack), but you've got a piece of fruit as the main component of your dinner. That is just fucked up.

(I used to work with a fruitarian though. He would be happy with this, I guess? But he was a very odd man indeed.)

That’s the one from Notting Hill where she says the carrots have been murdered.
