The guests at Sunday evening's black tie White House dinner for the nation's governors feasted on servings of Chesapeake crab agnolottis, wagyu beef, Nantucket scallops and huckleberry cobbler for dessert. But thanks to First Lady Michelle Obama, a bit more of the day-to-day eating habits of the new family living at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave has been learned.
"There are some mean waffles and grits that are made in the morning that have become a regular staple for some of us," Obama said. But she didn't reveal exactly for who that breakfast pairing has become a morning favorite. Though she was quick to add that she's not the one who eats waffles every day

“Whatd you expect from a $315,000/year hospital outreach vp?”
That job, for those that don’t know, was created especially for Michelle. It was created when he was elected jr. Senator and disappeared when the Zero won the election. He or she were being paid back for something.
Doe’s anyone know what brand of bacon they use at the Whitehouse?
I was young. Early eighties. What can I say.
Once the Regan economy took hold. I was no longer looking
at pig guts.
I didn’t realize grits was a staple in Chicago...
The only thing I can agree on with The Messiahs - I love waffles and grits.
To be fair, that room service story was fake - she wasn't even staying at the hotel where it supposedly took place
Both at the same time? What do you put on them?
Every black male I work with says that Oprah is a lesbian and they’re surprised when they learn this is news to a lot of people.
Next it will be chipped beef on toast...what mt dad called SOS
Grits, fried okra, black eye peas I miss them all!
You can take the boy out of the country but you can take the country out of the boy.
Chicago is in the South?
Chicago has a large population of blacks who are one to three generations removed from the mid-South, especially the Mississippi Delta. It's no different than Polish Americans favoring pierogis or Jewish Americans bagels, except that African American food preferences did not originate from ancestors who came from overseas 90-130 years ago.
“So, Mr. Tipton, how could it take you 5 minutes to cook your grits when it takes the entire grit-eating world 20 minutes?”
I prefer them separated but will eat them together if I HAVE to. :-) I love maple syrup on my waffles and lots of butter, salt and pepper on my grits. Now I’m starving!!
WH=Waffle House
It's hard not to figure that one out with her fat a$$.
“”You must not be from the south. Grits are eaten by all sorts of persuasions here in the south and southwest.”
Chicago is in the South?”
LADY J, are you sure you meant to send your posting to me? Suggest you re-read my postings. I have made no mention of Chicago nor suggested that it is in the south. I am from Texas, God Bless Texas...
“To be fair, that room service story was fake - she wasn’t even staying at the hotel where it supposedly took place”
Thanks for posting, I did not know that, after seeing your post I went to factcheck and saw this.
“The New York Post, which originally reported the fabricated story as true on October 17, has retracted its article. Darragh Murphy, the director of Puma PAC, has also retracted the flyer and apologized for perpetuating the hoax.

Clarification: Michelle Obama was in New York on the evening of Oct. 15 to attend the final presidential debate but did not stay in the Waldorf-Astoria, according to the Obama campaign (and the New York Post retraction). She left Indiana after her afternoon speech. The receipt is dated 4:04 pm, at which time the campaign says Obama had not yet arrived in New York.”
