news King Charles strips UK brands of royal warrant - including Cadbury and Marmite

[GraceRandolph]

King Charles has stripped chocolate giant Cadbury of its Royal Warrant, and it's thought his new health-conscious diet could have spurred the decision. The confectionery brand based in Bourneville, Birmingham, is among 100 companies to lose out on official endorsement from the royal family in a newly-updated list. Also missing out is consumer goods multinational Unilever, whose products include popular food brands Marmite, Magnum ice cream bars and Pot Noodle. Yet operations favoured by Charles's wife Queen Camilla remain among the latest beneficiaries of the royal household's stamp of approval.

I don't think it will affect the stripped brands in any meaningful way tbh. It's just something fancy brands can brag about having but the average person in the UK doesn't have a clue which brands do or don't have a Royal Warrant so they'll continue consuming these brands like they did before.

I don't live in the UK but I feel like King Charles is not a particularly beloved individual and thus this won't really mean much.

Having still to these days individuals living off people's taxes only because of traditions and some sort of 'divinity' is absurd and anachronistic lol

Great way to make enemies of the crown and gain nothing

Why would anyone want the royal endorsement.
