Sorry to repeat myself but Hellmann's asked me onto the show well before I joined Tattle - I was supposed to be on LAST Tuesday but couldn't make it. I'm also on Mumsnet, Reddit, Digital Spy and a number of other websites where she may be discussed. Were I not a Tattle member would you suggest I shouldn't go on a show to which the sponsors have invited me?

I have no intention of harrassing her, what would be the point of that? I have no intention of playing into her narrative. The simple fact is THEY approached ME because I posted online about having an odd ingredient and ideas to use it for,

As with others, I see your point, and as I have said already, I may well feel the same if I were on the other side, but as a professional I'm not going to turn down what amounts to 5 minutes that will not only give my Instagram account a little exposure but will also give me an insight into how this all works.

If I sound snippy I apologise, it's just I've answered this at least 4, maybe 5 times in this thread, and I'm trying not to be exasperated (not at you) but I'm only human.

It's okay, I was about four pages behind when I posted my comment and I didn't see your replies.

I suppose it confuses me that someone would accept and agree to appear on her thing, and then join here? If you were not a Tattle member, I wouldn't know of you, and I'd assume you were someone who at least likes her enough to appear along with her. Instead, you did choose to join here after you were invited, you have posted comments here (which whilst may not be mean/horrible/overtly negative, are not exactly supportive either).

As a professional, turning down an opportunity might not be want you want to do... But you've made it fairly obvious from your comments on here as to who you are (I found you on Twitter), and I don't see how your sudden appearance on here after your invite is professional or relevant to someone who is trying to increase their numbers. Maybe I'm just being cynical, but it doesn't make sense.
 
I’m really lusting after a veggie version of Poutine for dinner tonight. I find veggie gravy really difficult though as it just doesnt hit the spot like beef gravy ... do any of you lovely Foodie Frauen (and Herren) have a really good mushroom or otherwise veggie gravy recipe I can try !!?
 
I don't know what her obsession with us is, I really don't. You don't get other people in the public eye obsessing over a website or magazine/newspaper the way she does about her thread here. Most other 'celebrities' just get on with it and ignore any bad press that's out there about them, it's what comes with the territory. We aren't harassing her, or making any public statements on social media about her, like she is about us.

Is this...... my cat’s account

He is obsessed with marmite, so many times I’ve forgotten and nipped back to the kitchen for something & come back to him licking it off my toast. I wonder if I should dollop some on his wet food as a treat

our cat does that. He also has a 'For fucks sake, lighten up' face when he is shouted at to stop.

I would maybe put a ratio of water in like 8:2 (8 being the Tropicana) - only so it’s not super sticky / sickly when they’re frozen and you’ll be able to get them out of the mould easily, and so if they have that water ratio they can be icy/refreshing if that makes sense!

Thank you!! The sticky doom is what I was scared of tbh, I’ll ~experiment with my crazy food brain ala JM and let you guys know how it goes! x

JM sounds like shes too busy gearing up for dragging us Hausfrauen to court (rather than opening up her platform as promised on Tuesday) - are you not a wee bit nervous incase she goes off on one with you as Cabal Representative ? 🧙‍♀️

meh, I was targeted by the alt right a few years ago, had my address published online, was threatened to be done up the arse with a dead man's cock, was going to be raped, set on fire, got literally hundreds of messages across my networks, had my business website brought down when i fought back, etc - I think I can handle a grilling from Jack
 
If we have to do to court, does that mean I get a free trip to the UK?? Here’s some more “lies” Jack, whatever happened to your promise to this woman?

@heretoreaditall2019 you could do 50:50 OJ: lemonade might lighten it up a bit?

Omg lemonade, you’re fancy I love it! I normally wouldn’t have any in but I actually do, we had chicken shop delivered last night (I didn’t confess on the thread cos you guys all had classy dinners, also FYI I don’t eat the chicken so don’t need to feel guilty about welfare but the chips are superb) so I’ve got some tins of 7up 😂

I’m gonna try blends now, this is so exciting thank you!

She bloody loves us, she sits at night in her satiny short pj set she wore in that Facebook thing she did with her friend, with chocolate and a coffee reading here laughing and loving how majority of the time its all about her and when it derails she goes, oh I must remember to post something to get this lot back to the subject of me.... That notebook she alluded to earlier on twitter that's her book she uses to take notes from everyone here on stuff she should do, recipes we have suggested, we all know she has taken much advice from here and put into action, shame she hasn't listened more, if she had, she'd probably be in a much better position , there might even have been a second DKL 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

The chips from the chicken shop round the corner to me are THE best. After being influenced on here to have Indian takeaway tonight I will now have to have chicken shop chips tomorrow (then maybe a salad at the weekend😂)

I don't think it can, libel doesn't have to name someone, but they do have to be clearly identifiable from the information.

For example if I was a cook with a significant following across social media platforms and I posted something that accused a well known chef of, say intellectual property theft, referring to them as 'That Man' but making it clear who I meant, that could be construed as libel.

OK I'm with you. She clearly can't be talking about this group when she calls it, what was it a disgusting, vile cabal of bullying trolls with nothing better to do than document and pick apart her every move. I've only been here a week and I've picked up more delicious recipes, gardening tips and learnt about MH and other issues from pretty much everyone who posts here in a really supportive and loving environment. If anything I see JM as being a sideshow rather than the main event here most of the time. Maybe that's actually what annoys her the most, this thread was started with the intention of commenting on her but developed into something wholly more wholesome and lovely with her as an afterthought a lot of the time.
