Peter Nolan George Bush Sr
Unlike Mr Obama, The first President Bush hated broccoli.
He famously said: “I do not like broccoli. And I haven’t liked it since I
was a little kid and my mother made me eat it. And I’m President of the
United States and I’m not going to eat any more broccoli.”
A
profile by the New York Times said that Mr Bush had a “whopping
appetite”, eating with a “shovelling motion, bent over his plate.”
George W Bush
According to White House Chef, a book by Walter Scheib and Andrew Friedman,
the Bushes enjoyed warm biscuits and a homemade chicken pot pie. For lunch,
Mr Bush almost always wanted a BLT sandwich, grilled cheese sandwiches on
white bread, peanut butter and honey sandwiches, and on the odd occasion a
burger.
He
was famously felled by a pretzel in 2002, fainting and falling from a
couch after choking on one.
“My mother always said when you’re eating pretzels, chew before you
swallow,” he said.
George Washington
The first US president preferred simple meals over fancy ones, according to
‘The President’s Cookbook’. He also loved a “wide variety of fruits,
nuts, and fish.”
David Cameron
The Prime Minister told
the Scrummy World Cookbook, a book of recipes compiled by teacher Nicola
Cathery, that the meal he liked cooking the most was a spicy sausage pasta.
“With thanks to the River Cafe Cook Book, this is my own shortened and
simplified version,” he wrote as an introduction to the recipe.
Nick Clegg
In 2008, Nick Clegg told
the Guardian that through his wife Miriam, who is Spanish he has “discovered
a Mediterranean joy in food”. His favourite meal cooked by his wife is
deep-fried croquetas made with flour, cheese and ham.
Ed Miliband
The Labour leader in 2011 admitted that he was happy with a tuna and cheese
melt. He said it took only 10 minutes to make, “which is exactly the
kind of thing I’m looking for if I get back from the House of Commons late
at night.”
