I have never read a recipe that listed 'fat' as an ingredient.

Maybe she meant to write 'meat, fat, vegetables, dairy, wheat, seeds', just to clarify that all ingredients can in fact be substituted.

Re the pics, if you haven’t got anything nice to say I don’t think she looks *thin* at all though, unless she’d gained a good few pounds? Rocking the nana Sloggi’s.

IMO a partner who can’t/won’t cook is a bloody hindrance. It’s a major bugbear for me. Mine will cook biannually and even then it’s only what could be described as ‘canteen food’. But with the carry-on you’d think it was Michelin star cuisine. And don’t get me started on the mess after

I do pity Louisa having to put up with those dreadful looking “breakfast bowl” things. Good grief. And can you imagine the histrionics if she failed to give Jack the expected amount of fulsome compliments. And Louisa (unlike Jack) has a serious and stressful grown/up job - having to deal with the drama at home after a day at the office must have done her head in.

She was talking about haggis too earlier. The screams from the abbatoir must have quietened.

ps, no judgment on meat eaters.

Imagine writing preachy articles about the conditions animals face in abattoirs and making money from releasing a vegan cookbook, and then shamelessly posting a recipe idea for deep fried flesh balls.

Only Jack.

“Teased”. Does that mean actually cooked, or will it be her usual thing of chucking a few things together (without explanation) and then completely forgetting about them.

Or, for that matter, will it be like when she “teased” her recipe for vegan crackling, telling everyone that it would be in the book - her veganish one I think - and then as it turned out it wasn’t in the book after all. (Cue quite a few rather pissed off people who’d bought the book on that premise. But did Jack give a fuck? Of course not.)

It’s quite horrible and cynical when you put it like that.

Just waiting for the day she becomes the first was a vegan once to land on Mars, after all she seems to have done everything else.

Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd she knew it, she bloody knew I had got lost in the Susie Verrill thread and posted those pics. I recover from Zoom pop quiz hangover and read about SJ, walk the dog, tidy up, eat Salt and ChillI squid takeaway and settle down. FML I had to Grunka Lunka like nobody’s business. Phew!

I would not usually body shame, so instead will focus on the garments. What the heck, she looks manky! You’ve all said it funnier than me, but I’m truly shocked. She needs help, that is just not right!

@Begborrowsteal so sorry you had to hear what you did, but hope you can hug your kids and realise you are moving on to better things

Hmm. I’m sure someone in here said that her followers/brainless acolytes were “enablers”. But she’s not been here for 7 weeks right?

You know the cafe on The Apprentice they go to when they are on the losing team?

All she needs is a striped blue and white apron and she has the exact grotty look I would associate with some ex con reinventing themselves in a greasy spoon.

Although I’m not sure her cooking would be up to their standards.

I dunno like, those cheeseburger heart attack balls sound like something an ex-con trying to impress would love.

I thought after JO and his school meals thingy, that the focus is on children eating healthily during school and therefore during lockdown. I can’t wait to see how JM propositions heart attack balls as children’s food.
