President Obama Tells Kids His Favorite Food is Broccoli(Obama Lies To Children)

President Barack Obama made an unscheduled visit on Tuesday to the second annual Kids' State Dinner, a healthy lunch children's event hosted by first lady Michelle Obama in the East Room of the White House. The president greeted the 54 kid guests and made a few brief remarks.

"Food can be fun, it can be healthy," Obama said, according to a White House pool report. "You are setting up habits that are going to be great your entire life."

As he left, Obama was asked what his favorite food is. His answer: "Broccoli."

Not surprisingly, Twitter erupted in mock scorn over the commander-in-chief's purported vegetable enthusiasm. Broccoli was soon trending on Twitter, and a full-on faux "Broccoligate" began to boil.

"Obama tells kid journalist his favorite food is broccoli. And his favorite activity is lying to children," Comedy Central's Indecision blog tweeted.

One of my favorite foods really IS broccoli. You can do so much with it and it honestly, really tastes good! Can’t comprehend why people have an issue with broccoli. I probably eat it three times a week in one form or another. (Along with cauliflower, asparagus, and cabbage) But Obama? HA!! We know he eats burgers, fries, hot dogs, lobster, (up to now OK) and - arugula. (No one in their right mind would eat that stuff. I actually got sick on it once.)

Dachshund on a Kaiser roll with Cheez Wiz.
For dessert, a nice big ice cream cone.
Afterward, goes for a ride on his Pee Wee Herman bike and doesn’t forget the safety helmet. Later in the evening, hangs some curtains to burn off a few more calories and keep his girlish figure.
