Kirstie Allsopp blasted for ‘breakfast-shaming’ stranger
Next time you head out to a cafe for breakfast, you might want to check Kirstie Allsopp isn’t sitting at the next table.
The Location, Location, Location star has been given a sound roasting on Twitter after using the site to pass judgement on a complete stranger’s choice of breakfast.
“Just saw a guy have a glass of coke, a cappuccino, a croissant and a ham & cheese sandwich for breakfast” the outraged 45-year-old presenter trilled, before adding the hashtags #OurNHSistoast and #worldgonemad.
Right, we know what you’re thinking: how on earth is this poor guy going to get through the day on such a piddling little breakfast? But wait, it turns out Kirstie is actually claiming this is WAY TOO MUCH food to eat at the start of the day. Oops.
Needless to say, dozens of wags have queued up to give Kirstie a piece of their minds, with some rather unkind commentators even posting less than flattering photos of the star in retaliation. A bit harsh.
@KirstieMAllsopp Perhaps a few of these for afters. Go back to judging houses, not people. pic.twitter.com/i2b6cZtNio

However, despite all the irate responses, Kirstie remains unrepentant, asking: “How can doctors & dentists help their patients if folk go bonkers if you say coke, coffee, croissant, ham & cheese sarnie not a wise combo?”
“My point is that if we all want a functioning NHS we all need to take a pull.”
Has Kirstie got a point, or should she keep her ‘sticky beak’ out of the poor bloke’s brunch? You decide.
