Food Flop
This Morning’s Cat Deeley branded ‘rude’ as host grimaces & threatens to SPIT OUT food from budget supermarket
Cat's less-than-enthusiastic response about the £11.97 meal deal sparked a wave of social media backlash
THIS Morning's Cat Deeley has faced backlash after she grimaced and threatened to SPIT OUT food from Asda’s Valentine’s Day Meal Deal today.
Presenter Cat, 48, who was sampling the budget supermarket's £11.97 offer, left fans unimpressed with her reaction, with some calling her comments "rude" and "snobbish".

The meal deal included a lasagne, vegetable medley with focaccia and pesto, a vanilla panna cotta heart, and Kylie Minogue’s 0% alcohol Prosecco.
Cat and her co-host Ben Shephard, both thought to be on £600k per year at ITV, gave their thoughts on the dishes - but Cat wasn’t exactly sold on the dessert.
When it came to the panna cotta, she described it as "a bit wobbly" and "custardy", adding that it lacked "enough texture" to her liking and tasted like "baby food".
Ben, however, had a different take, saying, "I really like that actually. The jelly with the panna cotta works really nicely."

He also joked, “And Kylie can do no wrong in my eyes."
Cat responded, “Kylie can do no wrong, but this is just a bit…” before bursting into fits of laughter.
As she looked away from the camera and grimaced, Ben even asked if she "wanted a straw".
A contributor on the show, who had been tasked with promoting the meal deal, called the dishes "rich" and "easy to cook," urging viewers buy it for themselves.

Ant & Dec in talks to bring back iconic weekend kids' show after Saturday Night Takeaway exit, says Cat Deeley
A third said: "Cat has no etiquette whatsoever."
Someone else joked: "Currently have an image of the @Asda head of marketing and the team all Sat around a big screen waiting for the valentines section... 'it tastes like baby food.'"
While one more concluded: "She’s so rude..some people will be grateful to Asda for selling a full meal for less than £12 for Valentine’s Day, yet she’s slagged it off, stupid bloody bint!"
Cat made another blunder last month when she accidentally dropped a huge hint Ant and Dec are planning to bring back SMTV Live after their Saturday Night Takeaway exit.
She told how the presenting duo are keen to relaunch the kids' programme, which she fronted alongside them in the 90s and 00s.
Cat and Ben were joined by SMTV alum Stephen Mulhern, 47, who gushed about his time on the children's favourite.
As clips from his early telly days were shown on-screen, Cat gushed about her pals' plans for the future.
Watching on from the studio sofa, Stephen mourned the demise of kids' weekend shows, claiming they're "missed".

Cat soon interjected: "Actually, Ant and Dec have been talking about maybe bringing back a Saturday morning kids' show. Be great if they did."
Ben, seemingly privy to their inside talks, finished Cat's sentence, saying: "Saturday morning kids' stuff."
