You ’ve likely heard of Donald Trump . The real estate magnate hosted 14 seasons of NBC’sThe Apprenticeand is also the author ofThe Art of the Deal , aNew York Timesbest seller . Oh , yeah – he ’s also the Republican nominee for president of the United States and he wantsto make America grate againand all that clobber .
But we ’re not here to get political , or utter about all the controversial son of a bitch the dandy says . We are here to babble out about food . Specifically , the Donald ’s YUGELY weird family relationship with what he eats . It ’s almost as weird as his family relationship with Ivanka . permit ’s take a looking at at the highlights ( lowlights ? ) of Trump ’s culinary dangerous undertaking , and hope for a brighter tomorrow , together .
Exhibit 1: He eats his KFC with silverware (not even a spork)
latterly , Trump tweeted a picture of himself enjoying an airborne KFC repast . There are multiple things improper here . First off : he ’s eating this shit with a knife and fork . Which is almost as big as eating pizza with a knife and fork . Which , he also does . How can he be a man of the people when he eats his fast food with cutlery ? ! I shudder to think about him eating aSnickers .
Also , why does he have a stack of two plates with napkins thrust in the eye ? And how can one valet be expected to finish an integral bucketful of chicken ? Using a knife and fork , that would take hours . It ’s like digging a grave , with a spoon .
Exhibit 2: He’s weirdly obsessed with McDonald’s… and fast food in general
When he landed the 1,237 delegate needed to fix the Republican nominating speech , Trump ( an ex - McDonald’spitchman himself ) celebrate the path every political leader worth his / her processed salinity would : with a big plate of McDonald ’s .
This is n’t the first timehe ’s proclaim the golden arches , orfast solid food in general , as he apparently scarf down Filet - O - Fish and burgers like he ’s a 16 - year - previous stoner . So , he ’s plebeian enough to constantly eat dissipated food for thought , but too skilful to rust it with his hands like a normal soul ? Nothing makes sense .
Exhibit 3: He doesn’t even know how to eat at McDonald’s
search at this . All his fries gone , while his burger remains unhurt . Dude . You do n’t feed all your fries before you feed your hamburger ! It mess up and mixes your palate up . You call for to take two to three bites of one , then trade over .
" Our predilection bud are chemical sensors that tire quickly , " tell clinical psychologist and apparent seize with teeth expertJean Kristeller . " The first few bite of a food appreciation better than the next few insect bite , and after a big amount , we may have very minuscule taste experience left at all . "
Do n’t fellate your gustatory modality load with one food , kid . It ’s just unseasonable , Donald . bare wrong .

Exhibit 4: He’s starting to eat before the rest of his family in this photo
I fuck campaigning to be the POTUS is tough , but this is just rude . Do you reckon Lincoln dug into his bison meat before Mary Todd even picked up her fork ?
Exhibit 5: He vastly overestimates the quality of taco bowls inside Trump Tower
" The near taco bowls " are definitely not made in Trump Tower . That ’s like saying " the best T - shirts " are sold in Disney World .
Exhibit 6: He likes his steak well done, like a monster
When President Obamarecently saidTrump is " bad to be president , " I ’m sure he had this in mind .
Exhibit 7: He never, ever, ever, ever touches his food
Since this 1995 very , very swish Pizza Hut commercial , it seems as though the Donald has refused to touch food directly with his ( maybe small ? ) hands . Even in pictures where it appears as if he is hold food ( like the one below ) , he is actually justbarelynot touching . Why ? Only Melania may be intimate for sure . Maybe he just does n’t wish to get his workforce dirty .
Exhibit 8: He loves foods on sticks
in reality , I love foods on sticks too . No harm done here .
