Jamie Oliver recently faced criticism for a slip of the tongue during his brand new show, Jamie: What To Eat This Week. The 49-year-old celebrity chef was demonstrating how to make a classic autumn dessert, the pear tarte tatin, when he made an unintentionally risque comment that left some viewers with raised eyebrows.
As he proudly presented the beautifully flaky fruit pastry with a dollop of creme-fraiche on top, Jamie remarked, "For me, I always take it from the back because it's got that lovely, crispy rim." This unexpected innuendo did not go unnoticed by viewers, who were quick to poke fun at Jamie's verbal faux-pas.
Some of the comments on social media were quite hilarious, with one user even saying it was "one of the worst sentences" they had ever heard. But Jamie didn't let the teasing get to him and continued to share delicious and timely recipes in his new three-episode series.
The focus of the show is to encourage people to eat seasonally and make use of fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. Jamie believes this not only results in tastier and more nutritious meals, but it also benefits the planet by reducing food transportation.
In an interview before the season premiere, Jamie explained, "Eating the seasons means eating food that hasn’t had to travel halfway around the world to get to our dinner table." He also emphasized the importance of using and supporting local produce to prevent it from going to waste.
However, this is not the first time Jamie has faced backlash from viewers. Earlier this year, his air fryer-themed series, Jamie Oliver Air Fryer Meals, received criticism for being too dry and using wild ingredients that were difficult to clean out of the air fryer.
Despite the occasional controversy, Jamie remains a popular and respected figure in the culinary world. He recently opened up about his tough parenting style and how he wants his five children to struggle in a safe and controlled way, so they can better handle the challenges of the real world.
Jamie and his wife, Jools, have been married for 24 years and are proud parents to Poppy Honey Rose, Daisy Boo Pamela, Petal Blossom Rainbow, Buddy Bear Maurice, and River Rocket Blue.
