Calling all Apple Cider Vinegar fans, if you want to buy and create some of the meals that Belle Gibson wrote in her cookbook, you can buy this now-defunct book on eBay. But, it won’t come cheap.
Belle’s cookbook, The Whole Pantry: 100 Recipes for Eating Deliciously, Getting Back to Basics, and Living a Well-nourished Life, was written to help others on their healing journey or to discover “what it means to be truly nourished.”
Publisher Penguin Books pulled the wellness cookbook from shelves in 2015 after claims began emerging that Belle’s diagnosis was fraudulent.
Since Apple Cider Vinegar premiered on Netflix, Belle’s story has become a global phenomenon. At the time of publishing, there are five copies of the Apple Cider Vinegar for sale, the most expensive priced at $137 and the cheapest at $60.
Sydney-based comedian Mitchell Coombs, a self-admitted fan of the Netflix show and the Belle saga in general, saw that the cookbook was being sold online.
In a recent Instagram Reel, Mitchell said he placed a bid on the infamous cookbook but was outbid! He asked his followers if he should fight back and place a $173 bid on the book. No word if he ended up winning the auction, though.
What is Apple Cider Vinegar about?
The Belle-inspired Netflix show is set around when Instagram first started.
According to Netflix, the show “follows two young women who set out to cure their life-threatening illnesses through health and wellness, influencing their global online communities along the way.” This would be incredibly inspiring if it were true.
“This is a true-ish story based on a lie about the rise and fall of a wellness empire, the culture that built it up and the people who tore it down.”
If your heart is set on the cookbook mentioned in Apple Cider Vinegar, perhaps check eBay.
Apple Cider Vinegar is now available to stream on Netflix.
