Is there a civilian federal employee called Food Taster?

3. That is fascinating.

I thought the OP was a joke.

You know, I recall reading, during T's first term, that he would have White House staff make fast food runs for him--McDonald's and Kentucky Fried Chicken--and they were told to go to a different franchise location every time and never to go to the same location twice in a row precisely because of his fears of being poisoned.

I can't for the life of me remember the source. It was just one of those useless bits of information that was reported at some point. Possibly it is from "Fire and Fury" by Michael Wolff, but that's just a stab in the dark.
