The Queen's former chef Darren McGrady revealed her guilty pleasure, as well as the surprising way the monarch eats her burgers during her summer stay at Balmoral
Last modified on Feb 02, 2022 14:46 GMT Sophie Hamilton The royal family are said to enjoy dining out on fast food just as much as us regular folk, and when the Queen stays at her Scottish summer residence Balmoral during the summer, she is even known to eat burgers.While our guilty pleasure looks much like a McDonald's Big Mac meal, the monarch's favourite treat is far from the £4.79 fast-food favourite.
Speaking to Insider, Darren said:"Her Majesty's Victorian upbringing dictates that the only thing you would pick up and eat with your fingers is afternoon tea." She, therefore, does not eat fast food but does enjoy a burger now and again.READ: 10 showstopping royal birthday cakes revealed"They would have burgers, but not the buns. So they would eat it with their knife and fork," he added.
Well, that's a new one. A burger without a bun, and not in one's hand? We're not sure we'd be able to follow this protocol… unless we were dining with Her Majesty, perhaps.The 'no finger food' rule amongst royalty also causes an issue when it comes to fruit. Chef Darren, who was head chef in the kitchens of Buckingham Palace from 1982 to 1993, has also revealed how the Queen eats bananas.The monarch is said to cut off the top and bottom of the fruit, then slice the skin lengthways, before cutting the banana into small pieces to pick at with her knife and fork.
