I've got to grunk a whole thread now. It best be good and Jack better have promised to refund all grifted monies. WARNED.

I have one hell of a grunk to do, and this isn’t really anything to do with anything, but I just stumbled upon an old post by @BlendedSlop in which Jack can be seen describing eggs as ‘soft and sloppy and delicious’. I am marvelling once again at her singular skill of making food sound absolutely revolting.

What did she use instead?

Back from shopping and noticed in the toiletries aisle that there was a 72 hour deodorant. I thought to myself, who in hecking heck would go 3 days without showering...

Then it came to me.

That’s the question Mr SM asks about the long lasting deodorants. I came to the same conclusion as you. It would be perfect for our smol pixie.

white’s deffo too solid although that’s a winner in the inexplicable stakes

Egg ring clearly deployed

Also, the 'My budget doesn't stretch to butter. It's fine. I'm coping' line always makes me .

'My budget doesn't stretch to butter. It's fine. I'm coping. I just liberally spread my bank accounts with lots of delicious, full fat Patreon donations instead. I had two minutes to get something into my online shopping cart to give me a soft, sloppy dopamine hit. I panicked. Twelve Cotswold Company sideboards later, the genesis of a new recipe was born... Grift, Spend, Repeat"

Jumping from the past having seen the photos of her at the awards.

Is Harold’s real name Popeye? Honestly if Alice the Goon had (tit) hair…

I never forget Mr Beacon's description of it as "She writes about food like she's describing picking up dog poo".

Thread title nomination, surely?

I spent half the thread wondering why everyone was slagging off Mandy Dingle. Send brainos.

Soz, off topic I know but there were no onions or carrots left in sainsburys today. I am racking my brains as to where else to purchase things like this? Can anyone advise me?

Sainsbury's is the only shop in the UK. I think you're sodded it.
You'll have to use Play Doh, don't worry, it's edible.. more than Jack's recipes in most cases..

At the ONLY other supermarket in the UK... Asda of course! (Do make sure you deliberately walk past several other well-known national food retailers on the way though).
If Asda is also out of stock you're f*cked,dear heart.

Don’t forget to stand around for a couple of hours waiting for the staff to restock the books before going HA! I SHOWED YOU to a confused 19 year old

Scrolling through the hellsite, happened upon this pic (I love this acc!) and I literally had to stop myself from shouting out loud “well that’s what you call an INEXPLICABLE EGG!”

ETA also only 5 chips wtf?!

Sorry, I know this is pure shattenstone but I've made it now

Needless to say... I will have the last laugh

Afternoon Frauen, I've just returned from a shopping trip. I glanced out of the bus window and saw a car with a very distinctive IQBAL vanity plate.
Has Iqbal re located to my neck of the woods???

Some helpful guidance just in case you were also looking to purchase “things like” courgettes and broccoli

Further, if you are doing a big shop, I’m reliably informed that beyond mere vegetables, other supermarkets sell ALL SORTS OF “SIMILAR PRODUCTS” at competitive prices.

Spoiler: You know, products like…

Eggs, sugar, cream and salt (and in December, stollen)
