Never noticed this before but how bleeping solid is that ketchup that she can hold a full bottle like that with the lid off and none of it pours out? It might be the only sauce you have to chisel out of the bottle.

I was clawing at the floor softly gently howling when I saw that.

In all seriousness though Mr Beds came into the room and was asking why I was shouting ‘trifle, it’s bloody trifle!’ at the TV.
I too was shouting "trifle! TRIFLE! TRIFLLLLE!!!"

as you all know, mr kcc understands all too well, I am glad to have him

Is it cuboid? Do you serve it in a slab with a knife in?

I feel like we're going to need an offshoot support group for cabal partners affected by Jack soon 😂

Why would you want to go self catering in Edinburgh? I understand getting some food in - snacky bits, stuff for cuppas, maybe breakfast things, but who wants to go on holiday to somewhere with a great food scene and cook all the bloody time? When I go away I do tend to venture further than the end of the street though, so am usually out and about at 'meal' times.

I think the main ingredient in that banana ketchup is a gold bottle with edible fecking gold spray

I might have missed this earlier but her insta bio has been updated.

She is now to be known as the former £10 blogger........

"Author, writer, sober, queer etc."...Wha?

Even Jack can't be arsed completing the list
I totally misread it as 'sober queen' and oh my how my eyes rolled.

I've never written a bio on any of my socials iirc, Jack is forever changing hers!

I know Jack likes pink in a kitchen so I have decided to sell mine. It's a Smeg/Cotswald/Cath Kidston (witch please) hybrid.

Jack, please send £10,000 to People-Huv-Tae-Know, Osprey Heights, Craiglang, Glasgow.

I also have a patreon where I sell recycled bog water in tetra packs. The bog water is premium stuff, I promise you will love it 😀


Disclaimer: my kitchen has not been facetuned.

Edit: yes it is. There is no way 4 mashed bananas would make 2 jars of anything.

2 people, away for 3 nights, in a fantastic food city, ate 2 jars of banana chilli ketchup?

Sure Jan.


Anyway, if I didn’t learn my lesson from the moonshine mash, or the pasta thing that you could serve at a ‘high falutin’ restaurant (spoiler: you couldn’t), or the hairy jackfruit pineapple burger thing, I’m making that banana ketchup.

Can anyone explain to me why cooking bananas until they bubble could be called ‘impetuous?’
I've not tried the banana chilli chutney, but Mr Vikki's, the company that make it make really good sauces. We've sampled a good few of them. The banana chutney though odd sounding probably tastes fine. I suspect Jack's banana ketchup avec skins probably does not...

Reading the banana ketchup recipe I am baffled that I ever trusted a Jack recipe. They really do just throw any old thing into a miniature bowl/rusty baking tray and call it a day.

We were banned for putting group photos socialising on Social media for a long time because of the pandemic. Our school stayed open all last year with very strict rules and the management said we couldn't be all over FB with masks off having fun with salt bae etc. I'm out of the habit now- I took no pictures really when we were back in the UK for the summer.

Jack's bios are very gauche.

Ninnies! I awoke with a start, somebody (sorry can’t remember who) stated that one of the recent insta posts wasn’t jack (possibly), the thought struck me that, maybe our new 'visitor' is the unfurloughed hands😱

Does anyone have a theory regarding the switch to Instagram? 🤔
I am wondering whether she was advised to lay off the politcal / social comments and concentrate on the cooking.

I don't spend much time on Insta, is it the case that Insta is more lifestlye and twitter more commentary on current affairs? (Though I see Nigella has a steady stream of people posting photos of the food they have made from her recipes)
Also, weren't the viewing figures for her Instagram appearances very low? She could be attempting to build up more of a presence/following there.
It also makes me wonder if the bulk of her followers on twitter weren't there for the food.
