The latest McDonald's critic isn't your run of the mill nutritionist. This time, a Royal has set his sights on the fast-food chain.

On a visit to the United Arab Emirates, Prince Charles suggested that banning McDonald's fast food was crucial for improving people's diets, a British news agency reported.

Charles made the comments while visiting the Imperial College London Diabetes Center in Abu Dhabi for the launch of a public health campaign, The Press Association reported.

"Have you got anywhere with McDonald's? Have you tried getting it banned? That's the key," Charles was quoted as asking one of the center's nutritionists.

Guess he won't be hanging out with Ronald McDonald anytime soon.
