On an episode of her show show Cook, Eat, Repeat, Nigella both confused fans and sent them into hysterics when the chef, who was making a brown butter colcannon, said with a completely straight face that: "I still need a bit of milk, full fat, which I've warmed in the meecro-wa-vey." After a couple days of the internet being flooded with meecro-wa-vey memes (because, 2020), Nigella took to Twitter to clarify to her followers that her mispronunciation was intentional. "Well, I do say it like that, but not because I think that's how it's actually pronounced," she tweeted, adding that "it's a camp joke that's now become a habit."
