STAY T F AWAY FROM SUE PERKINS!!

I was scrolling down the page thinking to myself... WHY HAS NOBODY MENTIONED SUE!!!!

she looks like she’s murdered her enemy and is holding their dismembered head.

Is she trying to pretend she's stolen the cabbages nose? Don't think cabbages have noses, love

I think it's a diet thing, my mum eats out of bowls when she's on a 'diet', you can put less food in a bowl (unless you are my mum, who precariously heaps the food high).

Thank you. I didnt know this.

Also something else thats bothering me is. Recently her recipies ,( if you will) seem to me to bascially her dinner served up in a rate my plate fashion with a run down of ingredients. Theres no real theme, ie time of year, celebrating specific cultures/ days. Its all just a mish mash of American/ potato famine stuff. Is this her body of work now?

Jack knows very little about specific cultures because she is incurious and self-obsessed. Her little universe is not a polyethnic one.

You are aware of her body of work, aren't you?

she's stolen the empty bowl thing from Rick Stein! his recipes always end on a shot of the fork/spoon clattering down on the empty plate

OMG I was wondering why I couldn't see the tweet when I searched for it so I logged out of twitter and searched again. It turns out I couldn't find it because this is an account I muted just last week, for being incredibly annoying and consistently turning up on my timeline not because I follow them but because so many people like their annoying tweets.
Anyhoo, late to the party but can you BELIEVE this is my first ever thread title suggestion which has been used! Feeling very honoured and seen, might do a speech.

Her universe is smol.

Despite all the books she's read. I wonder if being poor meant she couldnt read them properly because only rich people can read books.

I hope we don't have to wait a whole week for more cabbage content

It will be turnips and swedes next week - maybe pumpkins to herald the coming of autumn.

Aw shoot Poca, I don’t think there’s been a pumpkin spice Jack but given how basic she is and behind the curve on fashion.....nooooooo!

I've never had a turkey's egg but now you mention it, I'm convinced it absolutely has to be the worst of all the eggs.

This is Jack though.

She will serve up asparagus and strawberries to herald the coming of autumn.

And likely on the same plate with lard, anchoïade and POBP. With of course an inexplicable egg as garnish.

I'm predicting pears.
All the supermarket magazines, supplements and twitter trends have got pears everywhere, especially savoury.
Jack is such a maverick she spent her caravan holiday trawling through trends, realised it was butterbeans roasted with peppers then VOILA! She returned from her jaunt with a butter bean and pepper thingy.
So pears then. Probably from Del Monte. With anchovies.
