Meghan Markle is promoting her newest holiday recipe as “great for kids,” but social media users were quick to flag a potential safety concern in the dish.
The Duchess of Sussex, 44, appeared on her As Ever Instagram page Monday, posting a video of herself making a seasonal breakfast. The clip shows her preparing a yogurt parfait layered with her homemade raspberry jam, then topped with yogurt and museli, all served in a stemmed glass jar.
“You could do a yogurt parfait in a normal bowl, or you could just make it a little bit more special,” Meghan says in the video. She later adds, “All of this is great for kids.”
Her comment sparked debate. Many viewers challenged the idea that the recipe was kid-friendly, arguing that serving food in breakable glassware isn’t safe for young children.
Critics Call Out the Glassware
Users on X didn’t hold back and flooded the platform with sharp responses about her presentation choices.
One viewer wrote, “I questioned when she shows all that glassware and says this is great for the kids. No, it isn’t. Anyone under 12 needs a plastic parfait bowl.”
Another person joked, “Look, I’m not a duchess, but I would not put children’s yogurt parfaits in delicate, breakable glasses unless you have a masochistic need to step on crystal shards.”
A third critic added, “She cannot be a mum. Any mother wouldn’t give small children fragile glass!!” Others chimed in with comments like, “That is not a children’s breakfast layout!” and “That is not a children’s breakfast layout!”
