Buckingham Palace Handheld Food Challenge

Last night's and Just Now's "hand-held food challenge" a huge, stacked burger, oozing with bacon, ketchup, pickles, onions and lettuce, on a butter-drenched bun ..(a Euro-take on Miss Ann's Ghettoburger); and a crunchy super-thin, rolled tortilla, pan cooked in duck fat and Herbs de Provence, then filled with leftover gnocchi chili, carrot strips sauteed in duck sauce & chutney gravy and my 'special goo' of hoisin and roasted plums......served with no eating implements other than 'hands'.....How would Queen Elizabeth 'deal' with this at a State Dinner in Buckingham Palace? White gloves and tablecloth are de rigueur.....no napkins....no finger-licking! Hint: one may utilize the glass with 'stars'.....Stay tuned for another episode of "Emily Post, Humiliated".... Next week's challenge: eating a pair of popsicles, one in each hand, while on one's back, in the hot sun......upon a white towel.......avoiding 'sticky fingers', while someone licks raspberry sorbet from your navel as a pleasurable distraction.....and, while avoiding a pair of dogs with hungry tongues....their noses and eyes on those popsicles.....
