Seems like we all forgot about that one. She never mentions it and barely promoted it when it was published either. Wonder what the sales figures were like?Surely the final paragraph of that press release points to Bad Food for Good Days as the second book (published 2020; same format as Tin Can't Cook)?
Completely forgot she published a book this year she barely even mentioned it herself!Surely the final paragraph of that press release points to Bad Food for Good Days as the second book (published 2020; same format as Tin Can't Cook)?
Snap! So these upcoming books are some new deal thenSeems like we all forgot about that one. She never mentions it and barely promoted it when it was published either. Wonder what the sales figures were like?
Shit, I did a chaos and spelt “Thank you”and does completely wrong. Can’t edit, sorry, I’ve been on the 0.5% kombucha all evening and am feeling a bit tipsyPopping up from lurkdom to say hello Fraus. And Thankyou for the laughs and the incisive wit and investigation. This photo makes me wonder if Allegra had an anonymity clause on photos of her child as her frying pan dies cover the girl’s eyes. Or was it a coincidence?
It's weird that she doesn't feature that book on her website (which badly needs updating, as does her Wikipedia).Surely the final paragraph of that press release points to Bad Food for Good Days as the second book (published 2020; same format as Tin Can't Cook)?
Oh, shit. Sorry, I forgot about that bookSurely the final paragraph of that press release points to Bad Food for Good Days as the second book (published 2020; same format as Tin Can't Cook)?
We’ve all forgotOh, shit. Sorry, I forgot about that bookYes, of course it does.
Most sweet and sour sauce is based on ketchup, not tinned tomatoes. Ketchup, sugar, vinegar, and a bit of soy. Tinned pineapple is definitely a good addition. You don't even need half a tin, so you can drink the juice, and use the rest for something else. Cheap as to make, and stuff most people have in‘Cheapo’. Keep aiming for that deal.

Exactly! Tomatoes still haven't gained much traction in Chinese cooking.Most sweet and sour sauce is based on ketchup, not tinned tomatoes. Ketchup, sugar, vinegar, and a bit of soy.

When Jack turned all-American MOM and started trying to appeal to her new Yank audience (such as it was), part of me was hoping she'd end up doing a collaboration with Sandra just to witness the absolute culinary car crash that would have ensued.have you ever watched a Sandra Lee video? I watch them to cheer myself up sometimes. She also likes very strong cocktails but she is also an amazingly bad cook and I love it
Nobody should dare criticise it. Don't they know that she wrote this working 20 hours a day but also while sleeping all day due to severe burnout and it's a miracle it got finished at all because of how unwell she's been? And don't they realise that she's helping people?I am not sure why her looming 'book' is what has drawn me out of lurkerdom but fuck me I cannot quite grasp that her research is just looking at the most basic of websites. A first year uni student will be doing more research into their first essay than she is doing for this. I cannot wait to read the reviews if - and it's a big if - this ever gets published.
Currently sitting at 34 in the Big South American River's "Best Sellers in Quick and Easy Cooking" list. Embarrasingly this is 5 below "Tin Can't Cook", but shockingly it's one above Shivi's "The Ice Kitchen"Seems like we all forgot about that one. She never mentions it and barely promoted it when it was published either. Wonder what the sales figures were like?
Oh sweet Jesus, I think I’ve done myself an injury (severe) from clenching so hard through that. Awful, just fucking awful.I just found this nugget on YouTube. What are your thoughts?
God, this lady is like academic Jack.Absolutely, same, babe, and everything else to all of this! It’s Twitter and identity politics that has allowed for this, there’s no way to verify back stories on Twitter so these people have been able to get away with it. The thing is now people are noticing & happy to speak on it - one girl’s Instagram stories took down JJ, this Frances girl gets ripped a new one (admittedly largely by the niche circle of Vice adjacent freelance journalists lol), these fake African American white women are making international press.
It’s honestly only a matter of time before Jackie’s dubious origins story comes into question. Her dad’s own press coverage will be a cornerstone of her undoing, hilariously. If she had any sense she’d step away from the working class THEN and focus on the fake John Lewis loyalty points accruing pauper NOW to avoid such a mortifying social crucifixion. An interesting thread on Frances for intrigued fraus:
d) she rents her house.Wonder does Jack ever get through a singular day without mentioning
a) that she's autistic and/or ADHD
b) that she's ex fire service
c) an item she has but it's donkeys old/was a gift/is secondhand/was from a charity shop
