For a health food nut, President Barack Obama sure likes his burgers.
President Barack Obama made a surprise lunchtime stop at Five Guys, a fast-food restaurant in Washington.
The president ordered a cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, jalapeno peppers, and mustard as well as several other cheeseburgers to go. He also ordered a cheeseburger for Brian Williams, news anchor for NBC. The network was filming a day-in-the-life program at the White House.
The president snacked on peanuts, and chatted with surprised customers while he waited for his order....
Early this month, Obama and Vice President Joe Biden took a short motorcade ride from the White House to Virginia and ordered lunch at a small independent restaurant called Ray's Hell Burger. First lady Michelle Obama recently said she snuck out to a Five Guys restaurant without anyone noticing.
Despite their burger runs, the Obamas are big believers in exercise and healthy eating....

He's just one of us common folk. Workin' in the garden at the WH, growin' their own vegetables, buying burgers and such at photo ops along the way, but come Wednesday night at the WH....
What a remarkable piece of investigative journalism!
Yeah, the Old Town location of Five Guys is notoriously slow.
Eh Red Robin was lame and tasteless.
Since we’re bombarded by the press with blow-by-blow descriptions of what Obama does every day, how come they haven’t told us if he washes his hands after he takes a leak? Does he squat to pi$$ or what? Come on media, inquiring minds want to know.
“The ZERO HUSSEIN’S are big believers in eating health foods and exercise!”
CORRECTION: ADD
“in eating health foods and exercise when the Media is watching and at other times lets pig out on Grease Burgers, Pancakes, Wagyu Beef, Caviar, Lobster, Cigarettes, Cocaine, Crack and only SATAN and Muhammed knows what else:-X-D”
and a side of arugula.
What a piece of puffery. Two down home guys, zer0 and Brian Williams.
“No burger for you, Joe! Now STFU about TOTUS”
We have a “FIVE GUYS” here! annd their Burgers are Miserable Messes that dont even reach the level of Mickey D’s!
A few weeks ago I read a comment on another web site that said, “I will gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today. But, you better accept 29 cents on the dollar if you know what is good for you.”
Well, You know Larry Sinclair and Larry Sinclair stated he had long dialogues with the Trinity Church Choir Director prior to his Murder. Does that make two of the guys?
I wonder if he just ordered it or if he made a big deal about it:
"Some people say that there's only one way to have a cheeseburger. Well I don't agree with that. These are new and challenging times that call for new ways of thinking. New choices. New directions.
"And so, today, I ask you, the customers and employees of Five Guys, to join me in a new dining experience: a cheeseburger, but not just a hamburger with cheese. No. That was the way we used to think about a cheeseburger, but that doesn't mean we have to think about it that way today.
"I see much more than cheese and lettuce and a slice of tomato. I look upon this menu, and I see a great list of condiments. I see endless possibilities. Endless combinations. Bacon. Jalapeno peppers. Onions. And not just onions, but onion rings as well. Even guacamole -- is now within the grasp of any customer who believes in himself.
"How many of us were told that hot peppers had no place in American cuisine? That's how it used to be. We know better now.
"And so, Assistant Manager Tiffany, I call upon you to make me a cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, jalapeno peppers, and mustard.
"Yes, I would like fries with that, and thank you for asking. God bless you!"
I ate at a Five Guys once. It wasn’t anything special. I’d rather have a burger from Johnny Rockets or Red Robin. They both wrap paper around their burgers, and I can actually eat one without getting it all over me. I don’t get to have them very often because the closest restaurants are about an hour away from me.
Where’s here?
HERE! Thats where!
I love Red Robin’s burger with blue cheese, steak sauce, chipotle mayo, onion straws, etc. It’s the only one I ever order ‘cause I love blue cheese. Thanks for the heads-up on the email club. The closest Red Robin to me is in Syracuse, about an hour away, so I don’t get to eat there very often.
exactly what i was thinking
