Weird Presidential Facts You Learn on the Food Channel
It’s interesting what you learn on the food channel. Right now they’re airing some shows about food as it relates to the White House and White House history. Apparently, the Presidential family gets a bill once a month for their meals, dry cleaning and necessities like toothpaste. Nancy R. was reportedly shocked to learn this when she got the first bill.
Oh, and the Roosevelts served the King and Queen of England hot dogs and baked beans.
Reagan ate Jelly Beans to stop pipe smoking in ‘67. Jelly Belly created Blueberry so they could send him 3 1/2 tons of red, white, & blue jelly beans for his inaugaration. (His favorite was Licorice flavor though.)
Laura Bush makes her favorite Guacamole with lemon juice rather than lime juice.
Dwight Eisenhower did all the cooking because Mamie could only make fudge. She also clipped coupons for the White House staff.
