Meghan Markle is busy rebranding herself as a domestic culinary queen in a new Netflix documentary series, With Love, Meghan. But she admits her tastes are much more basic when the cameras aren’t rolling.

Elsewhere in the interview, the Duchess of Sussex reminisced about the more down-to-earth foods of her childhood. “I’d go to Grandma Jeanette’s after school,” she told the publication. “She made the best after-school snack: Kraft grilled cheese on white Wonder bread. All that butter.” Markle also fondly recalled her first foray into the culinary world in college, making grilled cheese sandwiches with fontina cheese and sliced pears from a Rachael Ray recipe. “At 20, in a tiny little apartment in Evanston, serving that sandwich and a bottle of Two-Buck Chuck—that was when Trader Joe’s was getting big—we all thought it was so fancy,” she said.
