  • This breaks down into a nightmare in my mind.

    What are the components of a meal and the service attached to it that can be stretched to the maximum for someone who “has everything”.

    Honestly, expensive produce doesn’t generate this sort of expense.

    Must the catering staff all hold MBA’s? Each fork is hundreds of years old and polished to a mirror finish?

    The carpet and underlay, is freshly laid for the meal; and then immediately ripped up and destroyed afterwards.

    I doubt Charles passed along the edict that he requires an outrageously ostentatious meal, but the French “just knew” that was the right thing to do.

    I want to believe heads of state would be content eating the same meals that are served in the Olympic village.

    This is the worst form of consumerism, you just point to your nose and people scramble to pamper you with praise, favour and treats.

    What a truly wonderful way to outsource waste, without feeling any personal responsibility towards the consequences of your lifestyle.
