Queen Elizabeth isn’t really a foodie, but she does have certain likes and dislikes. Although she never reveals her favorite dish to anyone, she does make sure that people who cook for her don’t add one specific ingredient as she fears it gives her bad breath.
According to royal correspondent Gordon Rayner, the Queen doesn’t like garlic in her food, Express reported. She is reportedly so concerned about garlic giving her bad breath that she has the Master of the Household department to be a part of the reconnaissance team to inform foreign chefs to not cook any dishes with garlic. The monarch has been to over 100 countries and she has tried a variety of dishes, but none of them apparently had the ingredient she hates.
Apart from bad breath, the Queen is also concerned about food poisoning. Rayner revealed that the foreign chefs are instructed not to cook shellfish or any other dish that can cause food poisoning. The monarch also doesn’t like spicy food.
What dishes does the Queen prefer? According to the royal expert, she is partial to poultry and fish. During her trips, she has her team carry British food in big containers, just in case she feels the quality of the food at the place she is visiting is not to her liking.
As far as the Queen’s favorite dish is concerned, she has not revealed this to anyone. Rayner pointed out that if the monarch were to reveal this secret she would only be served with this dish and she wouldn’t get to try anything else.
Apart from the foreign trips, the Queen also keeps herself busy with local affairs. She was recently spotted in south London, where she opened the new Haig Housing development that is meant for the armed forces veterans, Express reported.
