You have led a yankee life sheltered from the finer things.

Shrimp and grits for dinner is a wonderful meal

For the record and enlightenment of those who have pitiful lives lacking grits for breakfast, grits are eaten with a generous glob of butter, salt and pepper. It is also ok to add a generous quantity of cheddar cheese whie cooking.

Funny....that’s what every LIBERAL is saying about this.

Liberals, never-Trumpers, and Bush-League Republicans. Many of whom like to post on Free Republic...

Trump paid for it out of his pocket.

He must be broke.

They’re college boys; they loved it. It was probably ambrosia to them ;-)

Clever solution. The McDonalds store just scored bit. College Kids love that kind of food. No dishes to clean.

And no politics. Works for me.

Besides, the "optics" are great, stacks of Quarter Pounders are a perfect contrast with the photos of Democrats frolicking on the beaches in Puerto Rico.

LOL Ok, you got me there! The nutritionist is probably screaming, but oh well

A Patriots loving friend just sent that to me (I am a long suffering Chief’s fan).

As I told him, Big Red will kill Tom Brady himself for a Quarter Pounder!

What? No Chick-fil-A?

I’m disappointed that this event is being criticized on FR.

As if President Trump doesn’t have enough critics elsewhere.

...I read the article. The attendee team did not make any complaint. You made that up.

I made nothing up. This was all over the internet.

From a Chicago Tribune article the same day.

“I thought it was a joke,” one Clemson player could be overheard saying in a video shared on Twitter.

“I mean you’re not just gonna NOT eat the Big Macs stacked in a pile right?” tweeted Clemson offensive lineman Matt Bockhorst.

OK?

[Sasparilla]

OTOH, Clemson’s QB Trevor Lawrence said it was “awesome.

[ssaftler]

Looks more like shrimp over polenta to me.

“At least you hope it was ketchup. :)”

Ketchup has a very distinct odor. I like ketchup I just don’t like ketchup on hamburgers. I like tomato sauce, spaghetti sauce, but on a hamburger I like mustard and a dill pickle - actually three or four slices of dill pickle.

Same same for hotdogs- mustard and maybe ... Just maybe some hot dog relish.
