Bush Eats Organic

NYT: Hail to the Chef

After the Clintons left the White House, I stayed on (as White House chef) for the first four years of the Bush administration and was surprised to see how similar were Mrs. Clinton’s and Laura Bush’s tastes: though very different women, they both liked Southwestern cuisine and spicy foods and ate relatively healthfully. Just about the only thing that’s changed in the menu is Mrs. Bush’s insistence on organic products — much to her husband’s surprise.

There is virtually no policy decision that Bush has made that I believe benefits anyone other than the richest 1% of the nation's people. The end of his presidency cannot come fast enough.

That said, there are now two aspects of Bush that I support. He rides a bike, and he eats organic at least part of the time.
