And in fact, CNN Money reports, “Boomf” has just raised $1.7 million in venture funding and plans to expand in the U.S. After three months, they’ve shipped 2 tons of marshmallows (they sell nine to a box). “Marshmallows are quite durable and they’re just fun,” Middleton told CNN Money, presumably before tipping his battered burgundy top hat.

What do you suppose the Middletons discuss with the Windsors when they’re all gathered together for something like Prince George’s christening? How many times has James tried to explain his occupation to Prince Philip? When you’re moving among aristocrats, is being in frivolous trade preferable to a more hard-nosed career?
