New job offer at Buckingham Palace: the kings are looking for a chef and he must know how to cook vegan

Charles III of England and Queen Camilla are once again looking for a chef for their Buckingham Palace, although this time the candidate must meet an essential requirement: knowing how to adapt to a vegan diet.

This has been requested by the King of England, who some months ago prohibited food such as goose foie gras from reaching the palace kitchens with a clear objective: to take his first steps and become vegan.

However, to this day he is not 100% convinced of his decision, since in the chef search announcement published on the Royal Family website it is detailed that whoever takes the reins of the Buckingham kitchens must be in charge that the king can comply with his vegan diet at least one day a week. Yes, you have read it, well: only one day a week.

Among the functions of the new chef will be to supervise all the daily operations of the rest of the members of the Windsor Clan, "whether it is a daily lunch or a great state banquet, the chef will ensure that each meal maintains the highest standards" and to To qualify for the degree, you must have previous experience in demanding environments and be highly qualified.

Charles III of England's fondness for healthy food is not new, in fact in 1990 he founded the organic food brand Duchy Originals, famous for its oatmeal cookies. The business venture went very well for him for years, until assuring British diplomats in 2004 that he had become a "self-made millionaire," according to the Financial Times.

Later, the expansion of the company to the US and the economic crisis of 2008, caused Duchy Originals to take an unexpected turn: the company had to be rescued by Waitrose supermarkets, which currently continue to manufacture Duchy Originals foods under Waitrose Duchy Organic brand.
