In the latest episode of eyebrow-raising ventures, Meghan Markle has taken things to a new level by promoting a luxury item that looks suspiciously like something you'd find in a pet store.
Her latest product, a $15 tin of what she calls “flower sprinkles,” is being marketed as a chic garnish or home accessory. However, the contents appear strikingly similar to dried flower mixes sold online as rabbit food. Yes, actual bunny forage—intended for nibbling pets, not posh pantries.
This uncanny resemblance wasn’t missed on the internet. One sharp-eyed user did a reverse image search and discovered an almost identical mix of dried petals being sold as a treat for rabbits, guinea pigs, and other small animals. That version is available in bulk—an entire kilogram—for a fraction of the price. Meanwhile, Meghan's version is a tiny tin with a premium label, likely designed to give off an air of refined living. While the label reads “as ever,” some think it would be more honest if it said “as if.”
The presentation feels like it was pulled straight from a lifestyle parody. The packaging is polished, perhaps trying to pass for something from a Gwyneth Paltrow Goop collection, yet the contents look more like remnants from a dusty floral arrangement in a relative’s bathroom. It screams potpourri with the rushed energy of a high school project done last-minute. Realistically, who’s shelling out $15 for what resembles the debris of a dried flower explosion in a bathtub?
Rather than elevating the everyday, this seems like a case of rodent snacks in disguise. It’s a mix of petals and possibly hay, dolled up to seem like a gourmet experience. And let’s not even begin with the marketing pitch. According to Netflix, this is part of her lifestyle brand based in Montecito—meant to make the ordinary feel magical. But instead of fairy dust, it feels like she’s tossing oregano and mulch at consumers and calling it luxury.
What’s jarring is how tone-deaf the whole venture feels. People struggling with real-life expenses aren’t exactly on the hunt for artisanal rabbit bedding rebranded as salad garnishes. The disconnect is so sharp it makes a kazoo sound refined. If this is Meghan’s vision of culinary innovation, it’s fair to question what’s next—goat feed as granola, or driveway gravel marketed as exfoliant?
There’s also the matter of what’s actually in it. There’s no ingredient list. Are the petals edible? Were they grown organically? Were they sprayed with chemicals? Is this from a certified flower farm or scraped together in someone's backyard next to the compost bin? The lack of transparency is as questionable as her infamous NDAs. And we won’t even get into whether this product passes any food safety regulations—because frankly, it probably shouldn't be considered food to begin with.
Even more concerning is how this has all the markings of a drop-shipping operation. Buy cheap goods in bulk, slap on a fancy label, and never physically handle the product. The version sold for pets even has more variety in the blend. And no one’s seriously picturing Meghan out in the fields, harvesting petals under the California sun. It’s low-effort branding banking on high-end image.
In the end, it boils down to this: Meghan Markle is marketing dried animal forage as a luxury culinary item for humans—without any proof of quality, origin, or safety, and with a price tag that borders on parody. It would be laughable if it weren’t so transparent. If Meghan peaked back in her school days, this is the reunion moment where she’s still trying to convince everyone that bath bomb dust is a lifestyle revolution. If she weren’t so self-serious about it all, we might actually feel a bit bad for her. Almost.
