BERLIN They were feasts of sublime asparagus laced with fear. And for more than half a century, Margot Woelk kept her secret hidden from the world, even from her husband. Then, a few months after her 95th birthday, she revealed the truth about her wartime role: Adolf Hitler's food taster.
Woelk, then in her mid-twenties, spent two and a half years as one of 15 young women who sampled Hitler's food to make sure it wasn't poisoned before it was served to the Nazi leader in his "Wolf's Lair," the heavily guarded command center in what is now Poland, where he spent much of his time in the final years of World War II.

Wonder how many food tasters obama has.
I thought this was about Obama:http://obamafoodorama.blogspot.com/2013/03/sen-collins-no-food-taster-with.html
Now that’s what I’d call a bad job.
Today, of course, tasters are completely useless. If an assassin wants to poison you, he will. With an undetectable poison that works only after a week or so.
The assassin’s guild has many inhuming ways.
how many tasters does Obama use???
Would that be the Evil League of Evil, or The Guild of Calamitous Intent?

The original one. The only where full members get to Take the Black. If their solutions are elegant enough.
Once tried to inhume Death himself, but failed.
That's not new. Any recipe with mushrooms can be enhanced with the Death Cap, which is reported to be extremely tasty - except that it is also likely to be toxic about twelve hours later and fatal many days after an apparent initial recovery. It is believed responsible for 90% of fatal mushroom poisonings, including quite a few in which the timing was suspiciously convenient, and has been for centuries.
If you wait long enough for the Death Cap to take effect on the taster, you will only eat food that has sat around long enough for bacteria to multiply and for others to adulterate it after the tasting. I'm with you. I see no point in bothering with a taster, particularly for someone useless or malignant, such as the person this woman tasted for or others who may have a taster today.
and also that Eva Braun make some really rotten Sauerbrauten.
I’ll pass on the shrooms in that case.
“Would that be the Evil League of Evil, or The Guild of Calamitous Intent?”
bloody splitters!
Let us not forget: Hitler was a vegetarian.
