You did a swell job, pal. Especially with the thoughtful prize.Congrats to @Falkor and @Emmapism for the marvellous thread title. You each win one of Caroline's hands.
Well, in the last thread, Caroline herself may or may not have turned up to dish the dirt on the slops. Canal consensus appears to be that it was not Caroline at all, but possibly the slop goblin herself making mischief.
Go well, pals x
That sounds dire.Ocado’s answer to Jack Monroe? Feta, black bean & clementine couscous? Fucking hell. That’s it, the Nigella books are going on the fire this evening.
I think she thinks she has actually done the VBI. She thought of it, she spent 10 furious minutes tweeting about it, she argued with an actual economist and did 5 minutes of JackMaths. That’s a job well done in her eyes.I predict a gracious climb down over the VBI. Thanking Rhianna Pratchett for use of the name, praising ONS (again) for their work, whilst trying to imply but not actually saying it was all down to her. Then she will rely on commentators with followings not being bloody minded enough to point out it wasn't. A risky strategy, but a way out. Thank you very Matt much.
Another option would be for her to softly, gently walk away and not mention it again, after failing to go viral with yesterdays retweets. Leave it in the bio just long enough to see if anyone is willing to have her on the telly.
Or she could leave it as a hashtag in her bio (what a plonker) which I have just noticed implies it already exists, and threaten to sue anyone who says it doesn't, triumphantly producing an embarrassing mish mash of reciepts to disprove the haters.

I agree, it’s just like how she honestly believes recipe writing is just saying ‘hmmm this might work with ketchup in it instead of chopped tomatoes.’I think she thinks she has actually done the VBI.

I love Philomena, please don't besmirch her fine name when speaking of Jackie Le Pew.I am glad we will not have a Philomena Cunk type tour of the Food Shops of the Poor.
I find it really annoying (or laughable? almost unbelievably patronising?)I agree, it’s just like how she honestly believes recipe writing is just saying ‘hmmm this might work with ketchup in it instead of chopped tomatoes.’
