His doctor actually said that they had to sneak vegetables into his mashed potatoes to get him to eat any.
6 u/Mirrormn 28d ago Potatoes are vegetables, though. (I know, they probably were sneaking healthier vegetables in there.) 17 u/Razakel 28d ago They are botanically, yes, and they are healthy, but health authorities don't really consider them one because they're mainly starch and eaten in place of something like rice or pasta. 1 u/Dyolf_Knip 28d ago I make a veggie mash with one third potatoes, one third turnips, and one third cauliflower. My kids love it, and it's delicious. 10 u/Razakel 28d ago edited 28d ago That's the point, it's the sort of thing you have to do to get kids to eat veggies, not the President of the United States. Can you picture Trump snacking on carrot sticks and houmous? It makes me wonder if he has an eating disorder.
