Jamie Oliver just said the phrase "wazzy woo woo"

And it makes me want to punch his face in the TV. Who says that? Who? By the way he was referring to blending. "Gonna stick all that in the blender and give it a quick wazzy woo woo!" Shock

I'm far from perfect but if I ever said wazzy woo woo I would expect people to think I was a bit of a twat.

Mrsknackered · 26/02/2017 16:49

My dad bought my mum a JO book once. It had a recipe for a crisp sandwich in it.
I dislike him because he plays on being disadvantaged and uses dickish phrases and actually hasnt for a fucking clue why people turn to ready meals rather than spend an hour battering their own cod and triple cooking potatoes for the perfect chip.

ScarletFever · 26/02/2017 16:50

I suspect people dislike him because he's not clever or posh

i disagree - I think most people dislike him because he's a mockney twat (disclaimer - only going from what i have seen, and quite frankly i turn over if he comes on because I cant bear him, or his kids twatty-attention-seeking names - not an attack on the kids themselves of course)

BoyFromTheBigBadCity · 26/02/2017 16:50

Agree with the washing up.

Also 'save with Jamie' was a bit of a piss take.

His heart is in the right place but he is incredibly out of touch.

TinklyLittleLaugh · 26/02/2017 16:50

I have a couple of Jamie's books, but mostly I access his stuff free online. I didn't think the series he did teaching low income people to cook was patronising, in fact he seems to get on with everyone. And a few people seemed to really change their lives, go to catering school, that kind of thing.

At least he puts food issues on the agenda. No other celebrity chefs seem to give much of a fuck what the proles are eating.

Sparklingbrook · 26/02/2017 16:53

It's a bit much when he's worth around £240 million he's trying to help people save money. He can't really put himself in their shoes.

It's like when millionaires Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby have fellow millionaire Martin Lewis on to explain how people can save 20p on their weekly shop.

Shockers · 26/02/2017 16:55

I like him but not in quite the same way as I like the gorgeous Jimmy.

I may incorporate 'wazzy woo woo' into my daily vocabulary Grin.

English chef, restaurateur and media personality, Jamie Oliver, has a net worth of $400 million according to the Sunday Times Rich List.

Does he really play on being disadvantaged? As far as I know he was brought up in a very nice pub, where he worked from an early age, surrounded by a loving and supportive family. Yes he has said he has SENs but do we really think he should be hiding that?

And his kids are called what, Poppy, Petal, Buddy (can't be arsed to google the rest). Pretty bog standard for our local primary.

ShaniaTwang · 26/02/2017 16:56

I love Jamie, love his recipes and think he's lovely.

Stop the Jamie bashing!!

Littlepiglittlepig3letmeIN · 26/02/2017 16:56

I like him.

Littlepiglittlepig3letmeIN · 26/02/2017 16:57

I evenforced myself to watch that Saturday Takeawy shite so as to see him.

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 26/02/2017 16:58

didn't he promise to leave the country if we voted to leave EU? Confused

He gives me the rage

Ha - I actually laughed at 'wazzy woo woo', but I suppose it is a bit wanky.

Littlepiglittlepig3letmeIN · 26/02/2017 16:59

Maybe his wife chose the twee names.

Littlepiglittlepig3letmeIN · 26/02/2017 16:59

twee is polite for wanky Hmm

Sparklingbrook · 26/02/2017 17:00

Those names. Hmm At least they would pass the bizarre MN Baby Names matchy matchy test.

Shockers · 26/02/2017 17:00

At which point of wealth should rich people stop trying to help less wealthy, or even very poor people?

I think getting people interested in what they put into their mouths/bodies can't be a wholly bad thing, even just for health reasons (if you overlook the enormous amount of salt he chucks into every dish Shock).

TinklyLittleLaugh · 26/02/2017 17:00

He's from Essex isn't he? They mostly sound a bit mockney. I remember when he was a young kid on the Naked Chef about 20 years ago. His persona was exactly the same so it doesn't appear to be an act.

TroysMammy · 26/02/2017 17:01

I thought Jamie Oliver was ok until he opened his mouth, knobber.

ShuttyTown · 26/02/2017 17:02

😂😂 mrsknackered my thoughts exactly

KenDoddsDadsDog · 26/02/2017 17:02

Wazzy Woo Woo goes with his dance out of the car on Ant and Dec last night . Tit.

TinklyLittleLaugh · 26/02/2017 17:03

I honestly don't think Poppy, Petal, Daisy, Buddy and River are very "out there." And I speak as someone whose four kids have traditional Bible names.

ShoutOutToMyEx · 26/02/2017 17:07

I like Jamie Oliver. I liked his campaigning around school dinners, and I think he genuinely does give a shit about the rubbish kids eat and how that will affect their futures.

All the 'ten ton tongue' stuff is seriously horrible. I look after a little boy whose tongue is a bit too big for his mouth, which makes him speak a bit like JO, and I hope to God he never had the misfortune to encounter some of the PP on this thread.
