My take, there's a Gordon Ramsey restaurant near where we are, so that option is quite tempting.....if we had money. Which we don't, like most other people.
And when they say "Tom Kerridge made it", does that mean each meal has been touched by his hand or he just approved the cooking process?

Australia mushroom murderer Erin Patterson sentenced to life in prison with a non-parole period of 33 years
https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2025/sep/08/erin-patterson-sentence-australia-mushroom-murder-ntwnfb

"Mushroom Murderer" Erin Patterson has been found guilty of triple murder, and was today given a life sentence.

The bizarre nature of this crime and her courtroom demeanor has caught a lot of public attention — she poisoned the family of her ex-husband with Beef Wellington laced with death cap mushrooms. Three people died, and a fourth nearly died and required months in the hospital to recover. Her ex-husband was also invited to the fateful lunch, but he declined. It appears that she poisoned him on several occasions previously, and he had to undergo surgery to remove a large portion of his bowel to save his life in 2022.

Wow. A better person than I.
"As the pastor neared the end of his statement, his voice became clearer and stronger as he spoke about his desire for justice, before offering Patterson his forgiveness.

"I bear her no ill will. My prayer for her is that she uses her time in jail wisely to become a better person," he said, to gasps in the courtroom.

"Now I am no longer Erin Patterson's victim. She has become the victim of my kindness.””
