Roast potatoes anyone?

[Cod]

😁

dire

I just searched 'roast potatoes' on Twitter and it looks like there was some sort of kick off when a cook posted a photo of her mums roast potatoes..someone didn't like the look of them and then her fans jumped on him with a load of abuse 🤷🏽‍♀️ something like that..then she's flounced off Twitter or something. It wasn't that interesting to read about...I'd rather talk about actual roasties 🤣

I believe the Bootstrap Cook has had a hissy fit on Twitter because some random man commented that a picture of roast potatoes she had tweeted looked 'dire'. They were her Mum's, if I was reading other people's reactions correctly. They looked all right to me. There may well have been a lot more to it. She's done similar before and always re-appeared when the coffers started to look a bit empty.

There's an informative link upthread. More people cottoning on recently.

Cod ?!
Teen DS makes great roast spuds.

Expecting the British public not to have an opinion of a photo of a roastie is madness. Rating roasties is a British past time, surely?

I imagine it was just the final straw, she gets bombarded with abuse on a daily basis and something like this just made her feel enough is enough. For what it’s worth I think the roast potatoes looked great. But I am a shit cook.

🤣 🤣🤣

Sooo pleased I’m not on social media. MN is enough of a time thief and batshit.

She claimed that they were great because her mum is disabled.
I’m pretty disabled and they looked barely cooked to me but I much prefer a parsnip to a potato so what do I know.
I also agree that she will return within the week with a tale of woe.

it would be awful if this whole debacle distracted from some of the other questions people have been asking this cook about their patreon money.

I've met her at an event and she was odd and unpleasant .

Spaghetti hoops with your roast potatoes?

Mmm, roasties. I find Maris Piper make the best ones. And I shougle a tablespoon of flour in with mine when I rough them up in the pan.

try it with semolina flour. and cook in beef fat. life changing

DH had (instant) gravy with his baked beans, runny egg, chips sausage and bacon tonight.

some people shouldn't be allowed near kitchens.

I think you have to be in the ' gang ' to be let in on the secret 🙄

I think it's about MNet pre moldies. Back when there were Royalty, Meet-Ups and posts made you spit wine over the screen.

No. At least two of us have explained what this is about. All you have to do is read the entire thread before you post.

Cod got into a spat on Twitter with Jack Monroe recently and posted about it on MN. It seemed to be about spaghetti hoops

Someone else got into a spat with Jack Monroe about roast potatoes and cod has posted about it on MN

I think that's it in a nutshell

Will try semolina flour but I don't eat meat so will swerve the dripping!

It’s really not, it’s just a today thing

Has the griftzilla performed a toyectomy from her pram?
over roast potatoes?
fuck me she's a petulant brat

@ShirleyPhallus one lives in hope.

Who on earth is COD? I am clearly too new here, but I am six years and now
