Jack Monroe: rinsing hoops, squiggs and potatoes since 2012 (MP poster?).
Attachments
I’m dying of second hand embarrassment here
How insufferable does someone have to be who, on being made aware of a customer who is wondering why they haven’t received goods that they have *paid her for*, that her stock response is to “accept this query is a reflection on their own general dissatisfaction with life” rather than, say, a reflection on her being an unbelievably lazy, shameless huckster.
I'm still on Thursday, great greetings from the past!
I ~ literally ~ cant (no apostrophe ~ design decision) wait to grunk ever forward, towards the greater good, the light, the burning sun, the live thread...
I need to say this though:
1. Hoops (olde news): I firmly believe she rinsed, counted one by one the hoops from a tin and then recreated a hoopy sieve dump of the same quantity of other dried or fresh pasta.
2. More alarmingly, I always thought @SlopAmbsase was called SlopAmbasse a la Slop Ambassador (not that you advocate the slop, mind)
Back with my grunking gloves I go, see you all around next Wednesday with another four-day oldpanzenella crusty comment.

Aquafaba is better made from chickpea or white bean according to most vegans I know (I’ve only ever used that; allergen child here). Having said that, my baking is always a Jack level disaster so I leave it to the local vegan baker now.
Bet AM is her ex admin assistant.

I think the weight of the actual beans or percentage or something must be on the tin. Somebody commented recently on the percentage of waste by rinsing
Ah, “restaurant parlance”
I just can’t get over what she’s had done to her face. It’s not good. It makes me feel a bit sorry for her.
absolutely but that’s why kidney bean juice is ONLY used in chocolate cake (or brownies) in baking.
no body wants grey sludge coloured ‘meringues’ for example
unless of course you’re making slop inspired vegan meringues …
She is wriggling like a worm to protect her income.. Knows her stuff as well..
Took meself away for a walk earlier. Then realised how blessed I am just not to be her.
I've had hardship that doesn't compare to my Mam's or Nanna's. Remarkable women. And my hardship is absolutely based upon my position of being white and Western. It was hard, it's less so now and I feel so lucky that my life is easier now.
She never will. Her hardship is one she cultivated and brought to life. She's trapped herself in it and it's her validating space. I'm sorry you'll never find peace, Jack. I just want you to stop dragging everyone else into your chaotic, toxic slop.

Honestly the absolute condescending tone of this. Mise en place is a fundamental part of prep in a restaurant. It isn't some jaunty bullshit like 'ooo let's line up a few herbs (yes I know they are all interchangeable) and pretend we are gordon ramsay'. It is an integral part of our process as chefs. It is taken extremely seriously. You cannot get halfway through service and then realise you have to chop a few bits and bobs and fillet a couple of fish and tra la la.
She would not last 5 mins at even the most low ranked position in a kitchen i.e. the pot washer.
She's started adding fuel source to her recipes now and all I can say is she clearly estimates the general jacolyte squig intelligence level as highly as we do.
I was standing around trying to light a fire under my blender until the penny dropped. Plug socket, of course! Egg on my face.
I have forensically compared a tin of M&S baked beans and a tin of M&S cannellini beans.
Drained weight of 400g cannellini tin is 235g beans and haricots make up 49% of the 400g tin of baked beans. Therefore, more beans in normal beans than baked beans.
Edit: terrible spelling
I think whatever the reason she posted the rings (self pity, digs at exes, humble brag - whatever) she is still massively missing the point that the tide is turning against her. She hasn't yet realised posts like that now make a lot of people angry and incredulous, or just make them laugh at her.
I've just arrived on the South Coast ready for a funeral tomorrow. Met up with my OH (I've still got one HE hasn't LEFT)
OH asked a minute ago "what's that Jack woman you follow on tattle been up to lately?"
I said "I don't know, I've had a couple of weeks off the drama. I'll have a look and find out."
15 THREADS IN 14 DAYS!!!!
What has the little pixie been up to? I can't read all that lot...too much grunking for anybody. I will make do with the thread recaps, at least for the time being. A bit rude to be catching up on tattle when I'm supposed to be making small talk with the family.

Welcome back! Buckle up! It's quite the ride.
It looks like people are at last waking up to her grifting ways.
(Sorry about the funeral).
