Since the death of the Queen, 800 food and drink brands such as Heinz, Cadbury and Coca Cola have been forced to remove their current Royal Warrants on their products and reapply to the new King Charles III for new ones. Some popular products featuring the late monarch’s royal coat of arms and other affiliations have surfaced online on sites such as eBay, selling at shockingly high prices.
Products such as Heinz’s limited edition bottles of HM Sauce and Salad Queen, which marked the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, are currently retailing online from £7.50 up to a whopping £35. The listing for the latter describes it as a "gift collectors' item".
One seller is even auctioning off their completely empty HM Sauce bottle, albeit at a much lower starting price of 99 pence. Other Platinum Jubilee-related items include the Heinz Queenz Beanz, which are retailing for up to £50 for just one tin.
