John reminds me of Kevin from Motherland - but an annoying version.

Yessss ! You are so right.

Just caught up. Although John sugar-free is annoying he is actually a pretty good cook. Unfortunately I think the right decisions - I liked all three that left today.

I was thinking today should have a former runner up for this round then two winners and the critic for the next round. Would make Quarter a bit special. (Ideally three critics but I’m sure budget would not allow that.)

Just watching on catch up-

sugar free John is getting on my tits!

i am the mum of an adult with diabetes- I have nearly 30 yrs experience of type 1. We were drawing up in syringes in those days.

i never used sweetener- it is horrible and gave us the shits. My daughter was never told she couldn’t have sugar - restricting foods can cause rebellious behaviour. We allowed some sugar but always with a pay off ( more exercise or extra insulin) and like others have said, sugary stuff is needed to get bms up !
we don’t make an issue over her diabetes and I have never got emotional about it!

sorry I know I am a grumpy bitch but I am bed ridden with a lupus flare and I have taken some high strength pain meds…. Off me tits!!!

I've just caught up. Was out helping at the local food bank tonight.

My dh is T1 and he eats everything he did before he just takes his insulin accordingly. The only thing he's stopped drinking is full fat drinks.

Anyways the food looked okay tonight. Right people left.

Should hopefully be live on Friday.

And toddlerWalrus is nearly 2. Its her birthday on Monday.

I agree with people who say this isn’t pot luck food, this is showy off food, put them next to someone’s macaroni cheese or sausages and there would be muttering. Pot luck is one thing in a dish. ( or cheese and grapes if you are me)

I'm watching now on catch up. I agree totally with this and I also took cheese to our Coronation pot luck! I can't cook.
I'm sorry, but what the hell is it with all the curry-type spicy food? There was almost nothing else in the first round and now the brief is "Spice" ffs. I don't like hot food and I'm bored to death with it on telly. Moan over

Just catching up.

I'm really confused about all the fuss over sugar free mango chutney, mango is really really sweet, why would you add sweetener and make it vile (and make everyone farty)? Sugar free man can go boil his head.

I do like Diya and Jack, but I hate rice pudding, the smell makes me nauseous,

Popping on to recommend Grace Dent's autobiography 'Hunger'.
Lots of food memories.

Evening all. I have buggered up my arm walking the bloody dog so you're spared most of my comments this evening.

Cheering for Ping, mostly.
