So when the President travels abroad, like he is right now, who prepares his food for him? Not so much when he is on Air Force One, but more when he is at formal dinners, like the one tonight. How can the Secret Service ensure that what the President is eating is safe to eat (as in no dangerous bacteria, un clean water.....) and not poisoned? | ||

When not eating in the White House or AF1, I've always assumed secret service watches the chef like hawks and one of them eats a little bit of everything prior to POTUS. Probably have several POTUS plates made and randomly select too.

Isn't the White House chef a YUUUGE gentleman that has arms as big as my entire body?? "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

How do they over see food prep. Do they trust the Chinese to have the food or does the SS go to random butcher shops and pick the meat themselves? I heard they even go as far as bringing their own jet fuel. | |||

Sometime they get take out. https://countygrill.com/about/ I asked about it. I was told the Secret Service watched everything in the kitchen when it was prepared. | |||

The big guy you’re talking about is actually an Army pastry chef at the WH. | |||

I would imagine the POTUS brings EVERYTHING. The POTUS also has tasters. Imagine getting paid for THAT ! Lover of the US Constitution Wile E. Coyote School of DIY Disaster | |||

That has to be the worst part of being POTUS. I would love nothing more than to eat street food in Vietnam on some cheap plastic stool, chased with a few beers and a smoke or two. I hate fancy food. I've eaten everything you can find on the street in China and never had the slightest stomach issues. | |||

The success of a solution usually depends upon your point of view |
I believe the WH chefs are all drawn from the military. A senior chief mess specialist i was stationed with was interviewed for the WH chef position. She was not selected and ending up running a flag mess in norfolk but i always thought that it was impressive that she was under consideration for it. I don't know if the WH chefs travel with the POTUS but I can't imagine why they would not. “We truly live in a wondrous age of stupid.” - 83v45magna "I think it's important that people understand free speech doesn't mean free from consequences societally or politically or culturally." -Pranjit Kalita, founder and CIO of Birkoa Capital Management | |||
