How Obama likes his Burger and Tuna Melt
So I had a chance to see some of the presidents takes on some popular favorites.. where
Barack Obama decided to see how Air Force One did burgers on his first flight on the plane as president-elect. Heres what Obama requested from the planes flight attendant:
- Cooked Medium-well
- Cheddar Cheese
- Dijon Mustard (the flight attendant asked if he would like Grey Poupon, to which Obama responded, thats fine)- Lettuce and Tomato
- Served with a side of salad or vegetables
- No fries? Wait, never mind as Obama said, Oh, Ill still take the fries

Grey Poupon mustard, a flavorful condiment favorite of the president

Obama-style tuna melt served with waffle fries. The second sandwich was still being grilled while I took this pic
"According to 60 minutes, Obama can apparently also make Chinese and Indian food stemming from growing up in Hawaii and once living with an Indian roommate. Either way, the presidents got a good take on food. Thumbs up!"
Bon Appetit!
there's more.. including recipe for Tuna Melt..
