Yahoo - You might think that, with all that power and money (not to mention having a White House chef at their disposal), it would be champagne and lobster every night at the White House. But Grover Cleveland went into raptures over corned beef and cabbage while Eisenhower liked to cook his steaks directly on the coals. Although Donald Trump does enjoy a steak (well-done, with a Diet Coke chaser), his go-to meal comes from McDonald's, and he has his reasons.
According to the 2018 book "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House", Trump enjoys dining at the Golden Arches because he fears he may be poisoned at other establishments. Food made in advance, he feels, is less likely to be tampered with. If he makes arrangements to visit a sit-down restaurant, plenty of people will know in advance, which increases the chance that something may happen to his food. If he swings by Mickey D's drive-thru unannounced, however, he'll get the same premade, paper-wrapped burger that would be served to any other customer.
