Edible Plants....or not

[Rhubarb Thrasher]

the squashed Bee Gee  Antony Worrall Thompson is trying to poison us all!

you can smoke the seeds as a (crazy) cure for toothache, and I read about a traffic warden who was arrested under the influence of it. He was on his hands and knees in the road trying to roll up the double yellow lines  ;D

not called henbane for nothing - the use for toothache is ancient but it is the fumes of the plant that is used so not so directly poisonous - you cannot afford mistakes when you are a celebrity, thank goodness for anonymity  ;D

Not being funny - but has anybody cooked one of AWT's recipes. I asked at work and didn't find anyone who had.

I can't say that I've come across any of his recipes.  :-X

I'm not sure I'd risk it unless I wanted to get rid of the wife.

I've no time for 'celebrities' in any shape or form but I can imagine his legal team and PR crew getting the jitters while he sought to make amends.

His recipes always seem to be unnecessarily complicated. I've never tried one either, but to each his own, as they say.

he has recipes in the Sunday Express magazine.  This one was in some Lifestyle magazine. Of all the Celebrity chefs, he's the biggest waste of space. You know the joke - He has his own range of sausages - there's a picture of him in his kitchen on the packet, and underneath it says "prick with a fork" (thanks to I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue)

I thought  the sausage was Ainsley Harriott:
