Nigella, who has published a string of books on fancy grub, revealed: “I love really good bread and fabulous cheese.

“But sometimes a slice of plastic bread with one of those triangles of processed cheese spread on top can be just what you need.

“Maybe it’s because it reminds me of something comforting when I was a child.

“There was the French processed cheese, Laughing Cow.

“I love the experience of eating it.”

The packets feature a chuckling red cow wearing a wheel cheese as earrings, and are typically enjoyed by children.

But defiant Nigella added on radio station SiriusXM: “I think we’re so quick to judge: ‘this is good, this is bad’, or ‘this is in, this is out’.

“And it seems to me both entirely reductive and also actually pretty inaccurate as a sort of chronicle of the way we eat.

“I feel the same with frankfurters – those ones where you bite into them and you slightly puncture the skin and some of the water and oil spritzes out as you do so, and it can give you pleasure.”
