Michelle Obama feasted on ribs while on her skiing holiday, it has emerged.
The First Lady, who has spearheaded a campaign to change American eating habits, ate ancho-chile short ribs from a restaurant next to her luxury ski hotel in Vail, Colorado.
The Obamas have already come under fire for the vacation, with the President accused of double standards after appealing for Americans to sacrifice their holidays just days before his wife and children went on the costly skiing trip.

Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh hit out at the First Lady for her choice of food on Monday.
That’s good because I would hate for you to have a skinned nose.
Probable quote from MOOCHelle: BURP!
Mo ribs = mo junk in the trunk
I did some looking online and the least amount of calories for the ribs alone was 1005 per serving and as high as 1800 per serving. That was just the ribs.
lol
Like any good leftist, MooseChelle is concerned about what YOU’RE doing, not what she’s doing.
I calorie count way too much to let that BS from the article fly.
