In a lighthearted domestic dispute, President Joe Biden has found himself engaged in a food fight with First Lady Jill Biden, who has been encouraging him to eat more fish and vegetables whether he likes them or not. The president's favorite dishes include peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, BLT's, pizza, cookies, spaghetti with butter and red sauce, and ice cream that he occasionally makes into a full sundae.
During a recent visit to D.C.'s Taqueria Habanero on Friday, President Biden indulged in churros and a chicken quesadilla. It appears the first lady is trying her best to steer her husband away from such choices towards healthier options as they prepare for his potential run for a second term.
Back in September 2021 when the president's sister Val visited the White House for dinner, First Lady Jill Biden had chosen salmon encased in pastry shell accompanied by an assortment of vegetables as their main course. Actor Jason Bateman jokingly asked President Biden about his meal preferences during their podcast interview last November.
According to Val’s memoir released last year recounting this particular private dinner at the White House: "The first lady selected our entree: salmon in pastry shell with medley of vegetables." After dessert was served without incident; however later that evening when Jill wasn't looking: "Joe helped himself to some lemon pound cake along with Breyer's chocolate chip ice cream."
It seems that despite Jill’s efforts at promoting healthier dietary habits within their family life – specifically more fish-based meals - it may be challenging for her husband who prefers carb-heavy comfort foods like ice cream sundaes or orange Gatorade reminiscent of childhood treats over these new concoctions she insists upon serving up regularly now as part maintaining overall health throughout his tenure leading America onward toward its next chapter together again four years from now in 2024 elections.
