Why don't the wealthy like grilling? What the fuck are these people eating? They're always so weird about food, but it's like if I were wealthy I would actually eat the food at the attractions. If I didn't care about spending $25 for chicken tenders at a basketball game then why not? That sensation was one of my favorite parts of being abroad. The meals increased from $3 to $6 while I was a captive audience. I went down to the bar to get a bottle of water and a juice and I thought the teenagers at the bar had said it was going to cost 10x what they took. When they gave me the change back I was confused for a moment.
Are the rich exclusively getting fancy dining and private chefs? Is it always the plate with the little bit of sauce whipped onto it? Do they not sometimes want a simple meal they make themselves without having to text somebody that they're hungry? Do they also have someone draw for them? Do they have exploited labor journal for them as well? "Here Jones, take my phone and go be out and enjoy nature in my stead, I have to go make sure children don't eat." I want to pity them for never experiencing the stillness that comes from household chores.

The rich and powerful are different from you and me. They're fucking freaks. This was Nixon's last meal at the White House...
He could have had his chef prepare pretty much anything and White House chefs are well-known for being fantastic. It's their job is to give the president exactly what he wants. And Nixon wanted that.

this just checks the boxes of 2000s internet wtf but in its context it was not at all unusual. if anything it comes off as a feeble attempt to appeal to common people
cottage cheese + canned pineapple was a classic cheap meal & it's kind of absurd to be rendered in such a formal presentation with presumably fresh pineapple. the tall glass of milk was also not so poorly received as it is now for adults.
The way attitudes to milk have changed is super weird. It used to be like... Normal. We had milkmen! Everyone drank milk.
Now it's weird if you're not a child?
i just assume all of them have gastro probs and have to blast diarrhea within 30 mins after eating, and absolutely refuse to have an attack of the ploppies in a public place or away from places under their control.
Most relatable politician
I remember reading at the old sub that Mitch McConnell only ate some mush that was basically gruel. Not sure how truthful that was, but I can believe these soulless fucks don't even enjoy food.
Most of them are really old too, so that's probably got something to do with it.
