If there’s one thing you probably want to avoid as a member of the Royal household staff it’s getting on Queen Elizabeth’s bad side. Especially, if you’re her personal chef.
In the new book, "Dinner at Buckingham Palace," written by former royal servant Charles Oliver, he reveals that the queen was royally peeved when she bit into her dinner salad only to find a slug in her greens.
(Honestly, can you blame her for being mad?)
According to Oliver, the queen and Prince Philip regularly eat their meals with notepads so they can send their suggestions back to the kitchen. This time, however, it was less of a suggestion and more of a threat.
"Once, on a torn-off top sheet the footmen found the dead body of a slug," Charles wrote, adding that Queen Elizabeth wrote a small note next to the little body that read, "I found this in the salad—could you eat it?"
Talk about a royal burn.
