The thought of drinking the salty watery white scum that comes out of cheap bacon has genuinely made me feel queasy

Not a foody frau, but do people even cook veg in animal fats these days? The goose fat jars you see at Christmas make me gag, even typing about them has made me gag, I’d be in bits if someone served me fat veg

Does anyone remember/have the receipt for her reasoning? Why did she bottle out of the transition?

That is such a nosedive for her career and reputation wise, but also a slight blow to the credibility of people wishing to transition. After she's written about it so much and so publicly, shouting down all the nay sayers, she did exactly what a lot of the transphobic tribe (and even the trans positive but concerned about decisions being made too swiftly people) warn will happen. Why does she have to ruin everything for everyone?

I don't understand anything anymore. She's made her mark writing about food? But it all looks like gunk?

Whereabouts on the timeline did she change her mind and was there anything that could have triggered that change of mind, I wonder? I'm just trying to mentally fit in her trans phase starting and finishing with the end and start dates of her relationships with Allegra and Louisa. And poor SB who apparently had to sit through a lecture on how Mummy will be changing, including genitally if I remember correctly.

Oh actually roast potatoes done in duck / goose fat is lush but there's a reason you only ever do it at Christmas, the time of overindulgence. Normally it's veg oil.

The way she writes tweets CRACKS ME UP. Just put RANDOM PARTS OF THE SENTENCE in caps lock for DRAMATIC IMPACT.
Same, babe And the way she capitalises random words to try and make them a thing, like her 'Very Good Sandwich' earlier.

Does she just eat beans?
I love your innocence Sadly it’s been a long lockdown and we’ve not seen beans round these parts for months now, we’re onto liquid mush incinerated for days at a time, and eyelid sausages. Dry heaving isn’t uncommon round here. The Salmon pasta & poor Ruth is a classic:
