Now, if you snoozed through Health Class—or common sense—the FDA has some pretty strict rules for anything you’re supposed to eat. This isn’t Meghan’s Montecito kitchen playground anymore; it’s federal law. You can’t just tie a gold ribbon on a jar, whisper “organic,” and call it a day. The FDA demands specifics: a barcode, the manufacturer’s address, an ingredient list, an expiration date, a “use by” label, and—most importantly—an FDA registration. Guess what Meghan’s spread has? None of that. Either she thinks she’s above the rules, or she’s betting no one will call her out. Spoiler: people noticed.
It gets even messier. Reports say Netflix staffers are fed up. Working with Meghan, they claim, is like fumbling through IKEA instructions in the dark while a screaming duchess barks orders in a fake accent. Insiders have dubbed her a “logistical nightmare,” and this spread fiasco explains why. Rumor has it she’s making staff sign NDAs to keep the origins of her products hush-hush. That’s a red flag slathered in raspberry preserves if I’ve ever seen one.
And then there’s the trademark mess. Meghan’s “As Ever” brand? Not even fully registered. The pancake mix might dodge the heat, but the spread’s still in legal limbo. She’s out here selling stuff she doesn’t technically own yet. Anyone could rip off her label, stick it on their own jar, and sell it from their garage with more legal standing than she’s got. So, let’s recap the Meghan Markle spread saga:
- FDA approval? Nope.
- Required labeling? Not even close.
- Trademarked? Still pending.
- Transparency about where it’s made? NDAs and secrets.
- Potentially dangerous to eat? You bet.
Netflix is reportedly sweating bullets, and for good reason. If someone gets sick from this unlabeled spread, the legal fallout could land square on their doorstep. Meghan might’ve ditched the royal family, but she packed all the drama into her suitcase—and now it’s oozing out of a jar. If you somehow scored one of these scandal-soaked spreads, congrats: you’re holding a potential FDA violation. Hey, Meghan, maybe try labeling your product before building a media empire around it? Just a friendly suggestion.
