Everything Donald Trump Ate in 2017

The year in well-done steaks and Diet Coke

It’s been a wild first year for the United States’s 45th president, Donald Trump. From nuclear war-threatening tweet storms to investigations into alleged Russian collusion, each day of 2017 has unfolded with a new surprise from the Oval Office.

The food world has not been immune to those changes. The Trump administration’s efforts to tighten policies regarding immigration and undocumented workers reverberated across the restaurant world in particular, sparking nationwide protests. Trump appointees also weighed in on tip pooling and a controversial Supreme Court case centered on the Colorado bakery that refused to bake a wedding cake for a gay couple.

Through it all, Trump’s day-to-day life at the White House (a place he’s allegedly described as “a real dump”) remains a focus of public fascination. Americans learned all about Trump’s penchant for consuming junk food, copious amounts of soda, and well-done steaks this year, much in the same way the president rabidly consumes hours of Fox News.

As 2017 comes to a close, it’s time to review some of the biggest dining moments of Trump’s first year in office.

January

Following his famously under-attended January 20 inauguration, Trump met with congressional leaders, cabinet nominees, and Supreme Court justices for a lunch at the Capitol. The menu featured grilled Seven Hills Angus beef with dark chocolate and juniper jus, potato gratin, and Maine lobster and Gulf shrimp with saffron sauce, followed by chocolate soufflé and cherry vanilla ice cream for dessert. The courses were accompanied by California wines.

The new president then closed out the day in classic Trump form — with a controversy. As it turned out, Trump’s inauguration cake was a copycat version of President Obama’s 2013 inauguration cake. Tiffany MacIsaac, owner of Buttercream Bakeshop, later explained that she had suggested different designs for the cake but was told to replicate it. (Just a week later, newly appointed first lady Melania Trump also ruffled feathers for posing on the cover of Vanity Fair Mexico eating a bowl of jewelry.)

For his first breakfast at the White House residence, Trump reportedly feasted on “fresh fruit, pastries, and other treats” and had the White House kitchens stocked with snacks like Lay’s potato chips, according to the New York Times.

There's another 11 months to go though but I couldn't give a shit was too bored tired.

Nothing is as effective as homeopathy.

I'd rather listen to an hour of Abba than an hour of The Beatles.
