It's World Diabetes Day!

So here is Ed Gamble (diagnosed T1 aged thirteen) devouring eight desserts in a row as a judge on Great British Menu and having an absolutely lovely time.

plus a few words from the greedy boy himself:

Ed Gamble, Glutton: The Multi-Course Life of a Very Greedy Boy, 2023

and finally a lil bonus arms, cat, Dexcom appreciation

Georgie was right for star baker and Illiyin was right to go out. But, and previously I didn't have any particular feelings about her, I was so sad for Illiyin when she brought it up

A bit of a tangent but this reminded me of the Northern Ireland round of Great British Menu the other night where a chef made a GREEN CRAYON DESSERT

“‘The Green Crayon’ is Kerry’s dessert homage to the work of Oliver Jeffers, never expecting that he’d be one of the people eating it. A crayon-shaped shell of green-coloured tempered white chocolate is filled with mascarpone and white chocolate cheesecake and a core of candied almonds, bay and blackcurrant puree. Wrapped in an edible label, its colourful simplicity wows the judges. ‘It’s amazing!’ declares Tom, and Oliver says he’s ‘beyond flattered’.”

I think you should watch this

Women in the Food Industry reports that The Black Bull, Sedbergh, is gearing up to host its first ever spring chef dinner series, with top female chefs set to take to the Black Bull’s stoves to create three one-off small plates tasting menus alongside chef-owner Nina Matsunaga who was recently seen on Great British Menu.

Watched all of the most recent series of Great Pottery Throw Down which I love + is one of my all-time comfort TV shows. I think my favourite challenge this season was the novelty teapots.

Also watched the most recent series of Great British Menu. This year, the theme was the Olympics (which they have done before in 2012) which I guess does give the chefs some scope. I wonder what they will do next year - maybe something to tie in with the anniversary of World War 2 ending. I think they could probably also do a good one themed around the National Trust + all the National Trust properties.

New series of Great British Menu tonight!

No one cares but

WHO THE FUCK planned this banquet???? There's are 150 guests, there are 5 chefs cooking 6 courses and you put them in a kitchen that has ONE HOB & ONE OVEN? There isn't even a deep fat frier for A MAIN ELEMENT of the starter!! He's in a crappy gazebo outside. I would fucking riot

I don't understand, it's supposed to be a celebration of artists, illustrators and animators, and you put the food in jeopardy by not providing the chefs with an appropriate, adequate, and functioning kitchen? Make it make sense

today at work we received 12lbs of cooked beef mince in an envelope with a typed note (because clearly a handwritten note would have been traceable 😂) from an anonymous person claiming they bought the mince six weeks ago and cooked it and got food poisoning.

i do not work in a food-related department.

absolutely unhinged behaviour.

So out of interest: Controversial Bake-Off s’mores vs The Menu s’mores. What do we reckon? Who wore it better?
