Donald Trump's Game Day Cravings

In an unexpected culinary twist, former President Donald Trump is gearing up for the highly anticipated college football clash between Alabama and Georgia this Saturday. Joining him in the stands will be prominent Alabama businessman Ric Mayers, who has taken on the duty of catering for Trump’s game day cravings, according to reports from AL.com.

A Mundane Menu for a Former President

While you might think a former president would request a lavish spread, Mayers revealed that Trump’s food preferences lean towards the ordinary. “I like a good steak,” Mayers told AL.com, “But President Trump’s tastes are as mundane as it gets.”

Trump's Food Choices for the Game

What exactly are those tastes? According to sources, Trump is set to indulge in two Filet-O-Fish sandwiches with cheese from McDonald's, stadium hotdogs, pizza from the well-known Michigan chain Domino’s, and, of course, a classic Diet Coke. This choice not only showcases the former president’s longstanding affinity for fast food but also highlights Michigan's prowess in the pizza industry.

Domino's Pizza, founded in 1960, has grown to become the largest pizza chain in the world, boasting over 20,900 locations across more than 90 international markets. Michigan is home to several celebrated pizza chains, including Little Caesars in Detroit, Jet's in Sterling Heights, and Hungry Howie's in Madison Heights.

Fast Food Favorites During Trump's Presidency

Trump's love for fast food is well-documented. During his presidency, he famously served fast food to NCAA football teams visiting the White House. In January 2019, he treated the Clemson Tigers to a feast of McDonald's, Wendy’s, and Burger King due to a government shutdown, stating he paid for the meal himself. A few months later, the North Dakota State Bison received a similar fast-food welcome with Big Macs and Chick-fil-A sandwiches.

Kicking Off at 7:30 p.m.

As kickoff approaches at 7:30 p.m. between No. 2 Georgia and No. 4 Alabama, all eyes will not only be on the action on the field but also on Trump’s quirky food choices. Will his affinity for fast food become the highlight of the night? Only time will tell!
