Royal fans in stitches over Queen Mary of Denmark’s hilarious reaction when she realises what she’s about to eat as she’s served lunch in The Amazon
Royal fans have been left in stitches after pictures emerged of Queen Mary of Denmark tucking into an Amazonian delicacy – before realizing what she was about to eat.
In footage shared during the royal family’s tour of Brazil, during which she visited the Amazon city of Manaus, the queen sits down to a native meal and appears eager to try it.
However, the mother-of-four, 52, looked surprised and slightly worried after she was shown a photo of the traditional dish that was about to be served for lunch at Biatuwi restaurant – made from insects.
The Danish royal family took part in an official four-day visit to the South American country last week, where they met with Minister of Climate, Energy and Utilities Lars Aagaard to focus on ‘Danish-Brazilian cooperation in the field of biodiversity, health and the fight against violence’. against women’.
After the hilarious clip of Mary having lunch was posted to a fan page for the Danish queen, fans were left in hysterics and joked that they would have reacted in exactly the same way.

In the video, Mary can be seen peering into a bowl in front of her. Unsure about what she was going to eat, the Dane was then shown a photo of the delicacy from a neighbor in the restaurant.
As we zoom in on a photo of the dish, the Dane’s face drops, much to the amusement of the filmmaker, who chuckles knowingly at the look on Mary’s face.
Mary laughed nervously when she heard the news that she was about to eat insects for lunch.
Then, in royal politeness, the queen turns her look of surprise into an animated look, smiling sweetly as if excited about the insect lunch.
After the footage was posted to Instagram fan account @denmarksqueenmary, fans joked that they would have done the same in the Queen’s position.
One person wrote: ‘Oh I love this! It would be exactly my reaction.’
Another fan said, “Wonderful Queen Mary” with a laughing emoji
Queen Mary traveled to Brazil last week for a four-day state visit, leaving behind her husband, King Frederick X of Denmark, 56.
During the trip, she visited Manaus, known as one of the most dangerous cities in the world.
On Thursday, Mary visited the National Institute for Amazon Research, where she had the opportunity to meet and feed a rescued manatee calf.
The Queen looked spectacular in a stylish Sandro dress as she was pictured petting and feeding the manatee.
She wore her glossy brunette locks down to her shoulders and softened with glamorous makeup, which accentuated her bright eyes and flawless skin.
Mary wore a pair of long dangling earrings with orange jewels and a teal drop.
In an Instagram post reflecting on the event, the royal family wrote: ‘The animal and plant life of the Amazon rainforest is something very special. About ten percent of the world’s total biodiversity belongs there, and yesterday Her Majesty The Queen was given an insight into the diverse life in the area.’
On the packed Thursday, Mary also visited the Center for Bioeconomy, shortly before being taken to the local indigenous restaurant, where she was prevented from having the unusual insect meal.
Mary was introduced to products that will promote the local bioeconomy in the Amazon at the Center for Bioeconomy in the Amazon Rainforest.
