The Queen once made a ‘brutal’ remark to the Royal chefs after ‘finding a slug in her dinner,’ according to the book ‘Dinner at Buckingham Palace’.
Charles Oliver, a former servant under Her Majesty, revealed in his novel that she had a funny response after having an uninvited guest at dinner with herself and Prince Phillip.
According to The Mirror, he wrote in his book: “[The Queen and Prince Phillip] would keep a notepad next to their plates so they could make notes about the meal and give their feedback to the chef.”

The former chef continued: “Once, on a torn-off top sheet the footmen found the dead body of a slug,” Oliver added that on the note The Queen had written, ‘I found this in the salad—could you eat it?’.”
During her 70-year-reign, The Queen has gained a reputation for her dry sense of humour and other staff members who have worked under her during this time have shared times she has been a bit of a joker.
