The eco monarch is known to hate all kinds of waste at home with Queen Camilla
The monarch, 75, never eats lunch, viewing a midday meal as a "luxury" that interferes with his demanding daily schedule. For breakfast, it's "birdseed" according to royal journalist Tina Brown, who revealed in her book 'The Palace Papers', that the King has a penchant for nuts and seeds in the morning.
A running theme in the monarch's lifestyle is his lifelong passion for environmentalism and hate for waste - something that spills over into, a charitable initiative with the aim of tackling food poverty and escalating food waste in the UK. In the UK, 12 million tons of food is thrown away each year, almost three quarters of which could be eaten according to AMCS, a waste management company.
"We were asked to include features into the cake that reflected Charles’s love of the countryside and everything he does to support it, through his charity The Prince’s Countryside Fund. Our traditional fruit cake was requested – Charles’s absolute favourite," revealed the baker., leftovers were known to be packaged up and sent to Windsor Castle so she could tuck into them over a weekend.
