The royal protocol is strict. In fact, the active royals have to forego some culinary delights – that’s what the Queen wants.
London – Royal Protocol states that royals may not be able to enjoy typical dishes when visiting certain countries.
According to the Duchess of Cornwall (74), these regulations dictate what can and cannot be eaten, reveals 24royal.de *.
Of course, the ban was not created out of arbitrariness, but pursues a purpose similar to the intensive color scheme of Queen Elizabeth II’s wardrobe (95). “It has to stand out so that people can say: ‘I saw the Queen.'” Revealed Sophie von Wessex (56), the wife of Prince Edward (57), in the documentary “The Queen at 90”, which took place on the occasion the 90th birthday of the monarch in 2016. She goes on to explain: “Don’t forget that the crowds are huge and everyone wants to say that they saw at least a piece of the Queen’s hat when she came by.”
With a body length of only 1.55 meters, you can easily be overlooked. The British monarch knows about the expectation of her appearances and sees it as her duty not to disappoint people who are waiting for her. The seemingly strict food bans are probably due to the same motivation.
When Duchess Camilla * appeared at Masterchef Australia, she told juror Gary Mehigan (54) that garlic was not on the royal menu. “I don’t like to say it, but garlic is a taboo,” said the wife of Prince Charles * (72) one of her food preferences.
The Duchess of Cornwall also revealed that she and the other members of the royal family would not be allowed to eat garlic or garlic dishes as representatives on official occasions, whether at home or abroad. According to the Express, the rule was apparently drawn up by Queen Elizabeth II * herself. But there are other foods on the blacklist. * 24royal.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA.
