Anyone else have this??

"It seems that someone at Jamie Olivers publishing company sent a word
document version of his 2nd book to one of their mates this morning.
Unfortunately for the poor sap who sent said word document, it is now flying
around the web at a rate of knots..so get printing AND please spare a
thought for the poor bugger that originally sent it. The deal of the day -
Jamie Oliver's latest cook book. RRP £30 at Most participating book stores.
Yours for £0.00. "

This is very bad, but think of it as all that good karma you've amassed
paying off!

If it's the one I'm thinking of, it's not really the second book (Return of
the Naked Chef), but a faked "Naked Chef 2" made up of various recipes from
the first and second book and sent out by a disgruntled employee of the
publishing company. It's been circulating for months and is mentioned on
Snopes. Unless you're talking about something new that I haven't heard
about yet.

I do have it (the one from months ago), but then I have both books at home
anyway.

Yup, since 2003. Snopes is definitely your friend:

Oh well, regardless - the recipes look good.

Thanks for clarifying this.

I wouldn't bother with the price of ink and paper for anything he
publishes. There are so many other better recipes and "chefs" out
there.
