The Royal Family has access to as many personal chefs as they wish for, but it's sometimes the little things in life you crave the most. This can especially be said for the Princess of Wales and her daughter, Princess Charlotte.
It's fair to say the pair both have similar unusual tasting habits after it was revealed they regularly ate a particular fancy snack when they were younger.
Kate Middleton, 40, 'loves olives' and Princes Charlotte does too, My London reports.
In 2018 during an official visit to Great Ormond Street Hospital, Kate chatted to four-year-old Rafael Chana, who was in the hospital waiting for a heart transplant.
When talk turned to food, Rafael told Kate that he enjoyed olives, and she replied she loved them as a child too.
"I used to eat lots and lots of olives when I was little as well," Kate revealed.
They also talked about their love of pasta, with Kate saying that her own daughter, Charlotte, likes pasta too.
Royal correspondent Rebecca English later posted on Twitter : "The Duchess of Cambridge revealed today that her daughter, Princess Charlotte, loves olives and she encourages both her and Prince George to cook with her."
Interestingly, this delicious snack can be bought at supermarkets such as Aldi for as cheap as 65p.
Perhaps seen as a rather strange snack for a child to have due to their acquired bitter taste, olives are very pungent and come in a wide range of flavours.
Princess Charlotte isn't the only royal who has a strange food palette, though. Princess Anne has a rather unusual meal when it comes to her breakfast, and it might explain why she works so hard during royal functions. The Princess Royal reportedly has blackened bananas for her morning meals, according to former royal chef Darren McGrady.
He previously spoke to TODAY and revealed: "Princess Anne almost always preferred her bananas almost black - overripe - because they digest easier."
King Charles III was regularly fuelled by a healthy breakfast of seeds and fruit, according to his former press secretary, and would often skip lunch.
Detailing His Majesty's 'relentless schedule', former press secretary Julian Payne said he never saw a single boiled egg at breakfast time in all the years he served the prince, while a former royal household chef has said Charles would take his special 'breakfast boxes' wherever he went.
Mr Payne said: "The King doesn’t eat lunch; so, an early lesson I learnt when out on the road with him was to have a big breakfast or bring a few snack bars with you to keep you going.
"The working day is pretty relentless. Beginning with the radio news headlines and a breakfast of seasonal fruit salad and seeds with tea."
