A video taken during a trip to the Bahamas by the savvy British royal couple in March last year is gaining traction on the web. Afterwards, Kate and William visited a local fish restaurant where they were offered to try cooking traditional Caribbean dishes.
Kate deftly managed the fish and shellfish – in the footage she can be seen scooping the pulp from the shell as if she did it every day. The shell is called “Bahamian viagra” and is known as the natural aphrodisiac of the Caribbean. Locals say the meat inside is the shell’s male genitalia, but it’s actually an appendage that can be found on both male and female shells. The royal person happily put the treat in his mouth to the applause of those present.
“I’m a bit more adventurous than William,” said the Princess of Wales. But the heir to the throne was not going to give up without a fight. “I can handle it,” he teased his wife.
During a tasting of seafood delicacies at the establishment, a representative of the royal family said that she had already tried pancakes made from the contents of shells, but she had not yet eaten a salad with this ingredient. The video went viral after it was shared by a royal fan account.
Users praised Middleton’s determination to try new things. “She’s so funny how she jokes cheekily with William. She’s not afraid to try new things that royals don’t usually do”, “Why did William fall in love with Kate? There is an answer. I think she showed him the simplicity of royal life in full swing,” “She’s amazing. Born to be a Queen,” he wrote in the comments.
During the memorable foreign tour, the couple also tried other local gastronomic delicacies. So William was offered a tea drink – coconut juice with condensed milk. The unusual cocktail turned out to be very much to the taste of the royal guest. “You talk to each other, I’m staying here,” the Mirror quoted the Prince of Wales as joking.
The pair toured the stalls on the beach where vendors sold sachets and homemade honey. Speaking to Abaco Ceramics stall owner Kimberley Roberts, 49, William looked at the honey for sale, then pointed to his wife and said: “Catherine has bees at home.”
