Michelle Obama is everyone's mom — if everyone's mom could use Twitter.
On Wednesday, FLOTUS fired off a tweet that caused the two-time Olympian to pivot-turn on her public affection for french fries and ice cream.
It all started during a question-and-answer Twitter session with the U.S. women's gymnastics team, when actor (and Simone Biles crush object) Zac Efron asked the final five about their favorite cheat meal when they aren't training.

(Maybe mum's the word until she reveals new sponsors.)

Looks like FLOTUS can't keep them away from ice cream forever, though. Biles and Raisman posed for a photo outside a McDonald's with three Russian gymnasts on Wednesday.

Just like on a beam, a good diet is all about balance.
Pffft!
Michelle, stfu.
That is TEXTBOOK Liberalism.
Existing to micromanage the minute details of other peoples’ lives.
“Shouldn’t Chewbacca be on vacation wasting our hard-earned taxpayer dollars somewhere?”
She’s what a wookie would be like if wookies were stupid.
As far as I’m concerned, those talented athletes have most assuredly earned ice cream treats! Eat up, champions!
How about flogging a different horse while you’re wasting taxpayers’ money, Mrs. BO?
No vegan could leap as high as these girls can!
That thing has its own area code.
Meanwhile, Michelle Obama eats NOTHING but junk food..but for Commies, its OK for them just not OK for the rest of us

Thanks for posting the required photo of Michelle with Carla Bruni and Queen Letitia of Spain!!! Made my day. I can’t stop smiling.
YOU MOVE! lol
geez, the National Nag can’t even let Olympic gymnasts enjoy the thought of a little splurge......
