Business Lunch
Newsweek notes that President-elect Obama, not much of a foodie, is getting an Inaugural lunch based on President Lincoln's tastes. Daniel Stone notes:
A detailed depiction of Lincoln's taste buds isn't too shabby for a man who died almost 150 years ago. A full mapping of Obama's seems much harder to come by.
All of which is really just an excuse for me to mention perhaps my favorite children's book of all time, George Washington's Breakfast. As a mere member of the chattering classes, I will be eating more modestly on Inauguration Day (and live-blogging the festivities as they occur).

It seems like Obama's food tastes are the only thing his enraptured media sycophants haven't adequately covered (besides his meager record). How shameful: I know that he snores and what's on his iPod, but I don't know what his fave foods are!
