Jack Monroe #186 The bromelain in canned pineapple is denatured

[Pocahontas]

Congratulations to @Rekyavikgirl for the words and @JuliaGulia for the nomination! Your joint prize: this monstrosity. Rufus Hound bantz optional.

Recap of last thread:

1. Fack Monroe wrote a love letter to the inventor of the tin can.
2. There was also a recipe for her pineapple chicken, which got all faux scientific. You had me at bromelain.
3. She was off for an x-ray and all manner of scans and injections, so called for animals of every species known to man, stat.
4. ‘If you know you know’ (which one of her eyes is possessed by the dark lord of Facetune this time), send your answers on a postcard.
5. She made several wretched-looking desserts in a recycled Tesco Mediterranean veg selection tray. Why tho.
6. She won the Diva magazine ‘Influencer of the Year’ award. And everyone applauded.
7. An advertorial for her tasty Del MonteTM recipes appeared in the prestigious online publication Female First.
8. Spoiler: Housekeeping

So pleased this made the thread title! I thought of it when I saw canned pineapple in Tesco earlier

Thanks @Pocahontas for your recap based hilarity. I really want to do a quiz so I can rollout this factoid about pineapple AND the winner of Diva Influencer 2021. I love facts!

Would you get an extra point if you got them both in the same question ...

Such as ..
Who won the DIVA magazine Influencer of the year 2021 and should be arrested by the Onion Police for crimes against pineapple ?

I am deeply honoured!

That's a better acceptance speech than Jack's!

I just had a vision of cabal members meeting in the canned goods aisle and saying the thread title to each other knowingly.

Maybe they’ll have to ask the jury in our eventual court case if they know, to see their reaction for neutrality (I know there probably wouldn’t be a jury ).

Going back to the acceptance speech video I don't think she looks unwell, I think we're just so used to seeing her perfectly smoothed in the soft glow of the rejuvenating pink curtains or a perfectly placed sunbeam that changes her complexion to a healthier hue. She does appear to be attempting to roll her eyeballs back in her head to see if she still has any of her brain left which is disturbing. She still needs that undercut sorting as well and I dearly wish that Lord Jesus Compton would put that poor mercilessly skewered blazer out of its misery like she did to the Tower Bridge python.

I still think she did look unwell in the still posted (that shadow bruise did her no favours), but in the actual video she looked okay - if slightly unhinged looking off to the top like that

When shocked at Facks appearance in real life, I refer to the del monte photos of late last year. Or the FSM tv interviews. Fack needs a lot of help to look so good as we see on twitter.

I tried to post this earlier but it didn't link....in honour of Greek Easter this weekend cos we know how Jack bangs on about their heritage

Pastitsio (Greek beef pasta bake)

Greece's answer to Lasagna - Pastitsio! Layers of Greek bucatini tube pasta, cinnamon spiked meat sauce, and a thick layer of cheese sauce.

does look very tasty- I have tried several of Recipe Tin's recipes and can vouch for their taste and ease of cooking

Is she still staying in the hotel? Did we ever find out if it was FANCY?

Can we have a caterpillar cake party on the anniversary of thread 31? (I want none of those med veg tray cake bakes)

She's wanging on about the price of sweeties now. CBA screenshotting

great title as always, I hadn't seen that "love letter to the tin can" and I just laughed out loud at the decription of her as "cook, writer and tin can enthusiast" I might add something similar to my linkedin, replacing tin can with cat
