Royal Family News: Does King Charles Like Avocado?

It had been reported that Charles never ate lunch unless required to do so due to a public appearance in which food was served. According to Christopher Andersen, the author of ‘The King’ the monarch has modified his diet in recent years.

Instead of having lunch, Charles preferred “a brisk walk” to having lunch and told the BBC that he avoids meat and fish two days a week.

Is Charles a picky eater? According to Andersen, sources told him that the king has “exacting standards.”

He said that “According to a longtime servant, Charles’ breakfast tray always had to contain a cup and saucer to the right with a silver spoon pointing outward at an angle of five o’clock.”

Additionally, “Butter must come in three balls – not pats of butter, but they must be balls of butter, and they must be three in number. They must also be properly chilled, or they are sent back.”

But wait, there’s more! Andersen reports that Charles’ toast “is always on a silver rack, never on a plate. Assorted jam, jellies, marmalades and honey are served on a separate silver tray. The king also insists on round ice cubes in his drinks because he thinks squared cubes are too noisy.
