Holly Willoughby has blunt reaction to Nigella Lawson’s egg on pizza dish
UK food writer and famous cook Nigella Lawson has seen success on TV with her various programs over the years, including Nigella Feasts on Food Network, Nigella Bites on Channel 4, and Nigella’s Christmas Kitchen on BBC Two.
By her success, you would assume Nigella knows a thing or two around the kitchen. However, when she was brought up on This Morning for a segment, something she posted on Instagram basically disgusted co-host Holly Willoughby.
Holly and Phillip Schofield spoke about the Instagram post on Monday, as reported by Express.co.uk, in which the famed cook suggested one meal that sounded a bit unusual: An egg on top of cold pizza. Hm, I’m not sure I would be too thrilled about this idea!
Here’s what Nigella Lawson had to say about her odd choice of breakfast when posting a photo of it on Instagram: “Now this is what I call a breakfast: leftover pizza from my Friday night @asap.pizza order, reheated and topped with a poached egg and a splodge of chilli crisp.”
As Holly and Phil were reading their lineup of news headlines, Holly could not get over Nigella’s breakfast. She said to her co-host when looking at the post: “It looks like something that’s come out of the bottom of the bin, I think.”
Phil admitted, “It looks like something that’s just been run over by a car.”

Surprisingly, many people in Nigella Lawson’s comments section were applauding the meal, also sharing that they love egg on pizza as well. However, a few people took Holly’s side on the matter, and one person left the hilarious comment: “[This] should never be called a pizza!! It’s a disgrace to the food of the gods!”
It’s certainly true that everyone has different tastes in food, but Nigella’s suggestion is a bit unusual to say the least. The funniest part, however, is arguably Holly’s reaction. She was particularly offended by the breakfast, and had no issue letting the world know!
