What would Michelle say? President Obama wolfs down TWO chili dogs and fries... the day after his wife unveils new dietary guide

When his wife unveiled the USDA's new nutritional plate yesterday, there definitely wasn't a space for chili dogs.

But that didn't stop Barack Obama wolfing down two in Toledo today - with fries and an extra bowl of chili on the side.

The president happily munched on the unhealthy meal before he visited the city's Chrysler factory, and even teased one of his hosts for ordering ketchup, a faux-pas in his home town of Chicago.

Yesterday she unveiled the USDA's new healthy-eating guide, which replaces the famous 'My Pyramid' with a plate divided into four nutritional quadrants: fruits, vegetables, grains and proteins.

But as her husband chowed down at the famous Rudy's Hot Dog with Toledo's mayor, the only sign of 'vegetables' appeared to be some fried onions.

Yes please: President Obama leans over to collect his plate of fries at Rudy's Hot Dog, Toledo...

He ordered the house speciality chili dog, which comes with mustard, onion, chili sauce and cheese, and topped it up with a bowl of chili and a portion of fries on the side.

As he entered the restaurant, which claims to sell 8,000 dogs a week, he told the restaurant owners: 'These guys, whatever they want; I'm buying.'

And he teased one of the cooks, USA Today reports, telling the owners: 'She says she's worked here 30 years. That means she was under-age when you hired her.'

Both Mr Obama and his wife Michelle have made healthy eating a focal point of their time at the White House.

Didn't ya know. He can do whatever he wants, the peons however.....

[faust-yusov 103]

Must be why he's so obese.

[Ban Hammer 13,716]

sounds like a pretty good choice, minus the cheese of course.

[ready4ONE 5,400]

This is almost as exciting and irrelevant as the news about Palin and Trump eating pizza with a forks.

[scandal 951]

I hear he smokes, too.

And GWB nearly choked on a pretzel.

And Reagan had a penchant for jelly beans.

Slow news day out there, huh?

[one...two...tree 2,762]

I'll bet Michelle is going to outlive him. Just watch.

[Gary and Alla 3,694]

Score one for Obama! Michelle should ask him how to stay thin. Chili dogs maybe?

[Danno 1,228]

Oh come on, this is just a minor example "voting one way... living another" a more glaring example of this would be enrolling his kids in non-public schools while voting to limit choice for others.

How is he limiting choice? You have the same choice he does. Wanna send your kids to private school? What's keeping you?

To answer Danno...No one voted for Michelle. Barack Obama eats chili dogs.

As for private school and what is "keeping him"...taxes. Allow us to CHOOSE which school our taxes get sent to so we can more fairly CHOOSE which schools our children go to. My guess is that you are not pro-choice.

I am pro-choice. What Danno suggests, however, is that Obama somehow has more of a choice than Joe Average. That's not the case. Obama sends his daughters to private school while still paying for public schools through his property taxes. Makes him no different than anyone else.

If the President had sat down at a McNasty's, then maybe I could see an issue.

But this is a landmark Toledo establishment, and quite appropriate for him to stop for a bite to eat while he was visiting the area.

So, another non-story from the outset. Oh, wait, this is the Daily Snail. Figures.

So what you are saying is:

- I have the choice to pay for private schools while paying taxes to provide a dysfunctional public one too?

-YOu support the rich having a school choice but not the poor.

Tsk,Tsk,Tsk.
