Jason Manford 'fuming' as he shows £16 lunch where he had to 'chop own apple'

Jason Manford jokingly said he was 'fuming' after he headed for lunch down South and had to 'chop up his own apple'. The comedian started his weekend on Saturday (May 11) with an appearance on Saturday Kitchen.

But he ended up being on the receiving end of apologies from viewers of the BBC One show as they voted on whether he should get his food heaven or hell - a segment in which they get to decide if he eats something he loves or loathes.

When he was asked which dishes he loved and hated by host Matt Tebbutt, Jason replied: "Food heaven - I love a pudding. I mean surprise," he joked. "I love a classic British pudding anytime I see that on the menu. And I just remember having bread and butter pudding a lot when we were growing up."

For his food hell, he selected a meat-based dish. "Pork. I'm not a fan of pork. Especially a chop. And the worst vegetable in the world, cauliflower. Can't abide it."

Matt then informed him the dishes he'd come up with. For heaven there was a banana bread and butter pudding with vanilla, rum and ginger caramel cream on offer. However, if viewers voted hell he would be eating all his least favourites with a pork chop with roasted cauliflower and white beans being served up.

Jason ended up taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, during the show as he said: "I’m gonna end up with food hell aren’t I #Saturdaykitchen who doesn’t wanna see a delicious food heaven tho!" But many of his fans felt the need to apologise as they much preferred his hell dish and they shared their thoughts on social media.
