Princess Anne's Nutritious and Practical Snack Choice

Princess Anne, known for her hard work and dedication, has a unique preference for a snack during her royal engagements. She often carries and eats kiwis, a choice driven by their nutritional benefits and practicality.

Kiwis are rich in essential vitamins and minerals. They are high in Vitamins C and K, fibre, and antioxidants, making them a very healthy snack option that suits her busy schedule. This nutrient-rich fruit is easier for her to carry in her handbags without the risk of juice spilling, unlike berries or other juicy fruits.

This practical choice aligns with her reportedly non-stop, hard-working day when she tends not to take lunch breaks. Princess Anne's aide and the senior royal herself revealed that she doesn't typically eat lunch during the day until her duties are over.

Kiwi fruits have gained attention not just for Princess Anne, but for others in the royal family as well. Zara Tindall allegedly revealed that Princess Anne always has a kiwi fruit with her. Even King Charles, Anne's elder brother, has reportedly broken his life-long habit of not taking lunch breaks since his cancer diagnosis in 2024 and now eats half an avocado.

While Princess Anne's favourite game recipe, devilled pheasant, may not be part of her 75th birthday celebrations this year, as the pheasant season isn't until October, her preference for kiwis remains a constant. The pheasant recipe, which involves poaching whole pheasants, shredding them, and mixing them with freshly whipped cream and Sharwood's Green Label mango chutney, is a simple dish to make and a favourite of Princess Anne, as she revealed during her guest edit of Country Life in 2020.

For those interested in learning more about the royal family, the commemorative edition of the book Queen Of Our Times: The Life of Queen Elizabeth II by Robert Hardman is now available at Amazon for £8.99. The book includes an epilogue reflecting on Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee, passing, and funeral.
