Reviews of the Jon Pertwee Recipe Book!!!
So by now, you will have some interest in the Jon Pertwee Recipe Book. You may feel inclined to buy yourself a copy, but are unsure whether or not it's a wise investment. Lets see what the reviews of Amazon have to say:
"As an avid lover of home-cooked food I have been after this title for years. Better known to me as The Jon Pertwee Recipe Book, I have been both amazed and confused/ concerned about some of the recipes contained within. I'll give anything a go once, but maybe not the Tripe Casserole. AnyWho, the book is endorsed by none other than Jon Pertwee, the famous and best ever Dr Who, and that is enough for me to prove its canonicity in the Dr Who world.
I would recommend this book to any fan of Dr Who, and any lover of home-cooked food
that dosen't cost the Earth.100 scrummy feasts fit for any Time Lord, especially if he's visiting 1940's Britain on rationing!
Hai!" - Andrew Osborne
"I've bought countless books that tell me how to bake my cake, and like most people I own a couple of guides on 'how to eat cake'. But it's tremendously useful to have the two combined in one handy volume. This is a work that explain BOTH how to bake your cake AND how to eat it. Five stars." - Cakey Breaky Heart
"One thing that isn't clear from the description of this book, and the lack of a back cover picture, is that it is endorsed by none other than Jon Pertwee, BBC TV's Dr. Who. This adds authenticity and authority to the product - although it has led to lengthy discussions amongst Dr. Who fans about whether this forms part of the Dr. Who "canon". It is now known universally as The Jon Pertwee Recipe book.
Many Dr Who fans recite the words assigned to Pertwee on the back cover daily whilst looking at THAT picture of Jo Grant and a Dalek, hand on heart and a tear in their eye" - Sutekh's Bum Hand
"A fantastic recipe book for all occasions. Put on your Mrs Mills LP, grab a random assortment of ingredients and go shooting off to the kitchen with Mr Pertwee. You won't regret it." - Darren451
"I was skeptical about this recipe book when I first heard about it. How can a man get the best of all worlds and prepare a meal that doesn't cost the Earth? Well, this book not only fills my innerspace, but it's opened my eyes to the wonder's Jon Pertwee, Noodle Doodle, and hardened recptacle oil. Do you want a piece of this? Do you?
Yes, you definitely do. The recipes are all delicious (especially the ones for Roberto the Turkey and the Tiny Plate of Peas). Big Brown Hands and Mrs Mills' knees-ups abound. While I thought I was merely getting a recipe book endorsed by Dr Who himself (Jon Pertwee, y'all -- none of them Bakerfakers, what I've discovered is the solution to all of life's problems. Where I used to wonder "What nonsense is this?" I now begin to see.
Please buy this book. It's definitely canon." The Dub C
"What many commoners fail to understand when they purchase this book is its cultural significance. Fortunately I have this opportunity to write this review to enlighten you. As others may have mentioned, this little cook book carries an endorsement from Jon Pertwee. I believe this is ultra-important as this was done in 1973, during his Golden Age of Doctor Who. This is not some 'Tennant starring in a show' or 'Piper takes clothes off in new series' attempt to keep
relevant. This was Mr Doctor Who himself winking at you and telling you that this cookbook is Ace!! (Blame McCoy for that - you should never experiment on your companions) A flick through this book will reveal amazing recipes such as Tattee 'Oggie, Braised Hearts, Pensioner's Casserole and Tripe Casserole. Additionally, there are coupons in the book, which are really useful if you time travel back to 1974. THIS BOOK IS INCREDIBLE. THIS BOOK IS AMAZING. THIS BOOK IS ENDORSED BY JON PERTWEE. Why buy dirty magazines featuring ladies
without clothing when you can spend your money on this super book instead? (That's right Garr. No more Mayfair for you! ;) )" - Comrade Kaled
""Baking Your Cake and Eating It" (more well known as the Jon Pertwee Recipe Book) has actually improved my life in many, many ways. Exactly how is hard to describe. Near-impossible, even. All I can say is that upon receiving it, I was instilled with a strange sense of clarity and spiritual enlightenment.
It is also possibly the most important piece of literature in relation to Doctor Who and definitely, unquestionably canon. Though the esoteric nature of its canonicity is still open for debate in
certain circles.
It will also teach you how to make a cracking Tripe Casserole." - Atticus (Not the Mind Probe)
