Wow, stellar editing there Bluebird. Personally I don't want to think about ovaries, arteries or Elvis dying on the toilet when I'm making dinner so that's a brave decision to leave that in.
OH GOD, my brain had already shut down from the ovary part and the last bit didn't even register.

Why would you talk about Elvis dying on a toilet and then throw in the word "aroma" . Does she not get that this descriptive imagery is the last thing needed when you're trying to make people feel hungry and want to cook your horrible recipes.

Oh definitely, and at least this one's not promising anything in return. An honourable scammer
Can you mention who the account is? If they have over 16k followers now, so large account then its ok to mention them. I'm nosy is all .

I think this squig is a wee bit confused still...

For newer frauen, yes this is from one of her published books.
Why for the love of LJC, had she brought her ovaries into this? It doesn’t even make sense!

She seems to want to shoehorn mentions of her reproductive system into the strangest places..

Here it’s like the whole point of her living is to reproduce or something. It’s just a bizarre way for a woman of her age to talk.

This!

How many of her half million followers have just forgotten they're following her? JM won't appear in their newsfeeds on a regular basis, especially as she's mostly tweeting late at night or through the night. This is probably the reason the follower number won't drop dramatically - I bet if Twitter automatically unfollowed if you've had no interaction with someone after a set time*, she'd be dropping faster than her knickers at a burger baiting party a stone bed pan full of hot pumbles ashes!

*I wish Twatter and Instagram would do this. Would love to see ALL of the fake bought followers on IG disappear overnight, rather than just a handful, and see what it did to certain influenzas' - like Hunch - follower numbers!

I followed Jack for years on Twitter without her presence there even registering with me. I wasn’t a massive Twitter user anyway, and when I did go on there I just scrolled past things that didn’t really interest me (like her). If anything I just thought she was a bit irritating. I don’t watch daytime TV so never came across any of her appearances there. It was only reading HH2 out of curiosity (I couldn’t believe she was still so skint 10 years on) that alerted me to her grift. Now I follow her for the lols.
I imagine she doesn’t register with many of her followers.

If I were going to do a parody Jack account, what I would do isn’t satirise her - I’d do a better version of what she does. Post recipes, highlight others, offer inisight

The problem with editing her writing is that you’d have nothing left at the end of the process!

Oh LJC she didn’t actually write this? Tell me you’re joking, I beg of you.
I absolutely love it when a recently signed up Frau reads something Jack has written and thinks we've made it up.

With Jack there is no need to guild the lily, her own words are enough to turn your stomach.

And then she gave up any pretense of subtlety and came up with "Fuck Me Sauce."

Why does she *hate* food? Courgettes can be the most delicious thing if cooked with love, anybody trying that will be put off for LIFE. And another thing: what, in the name of all that's holy, is her f*cking obsession with lemon juice?? I know it's a Cypriot thing (visited there many years ago), but there is no need for it to feature in every.single.dish. Also, bottled juice is rank. Sorry for the rant, I actually like food.
