President Trump is in the midst of a state visit to India, where the Trump Organization has five real estate projects in development, and violence over a controversial citizenship law is leading to deaths in the country. So, of course, there are palpable concerns about a particularly pressing matter: Will Trump eat his vegetables?
The concern began bubbling ahead of Trump and company's trip to Hindu-majority Gujarat, Agra, and Delhi, where many people follow a vegetarian diet. "Trump braces for a beef-free menu in India," a CNN headline blared. "I have never seen him eat a vegetable," an unnamed source told the network. (The same goes for my 3-year-old son.) How would the president, a former steak salesman, carnivore, and McDonald's aficionado—not to mention, a grown, 73-year-old man—possibly cope?
Former White House doctor and current congressional candidate Ronny Jackson revealed to The New York Times this week that in his efforts to make Trump's diet more healthy, he was slyly "putting cauliflower into the mashed potatoes.” Inquiring minds must know: Are White House chefs taking a page from Jessica Seinfeld's Deceptively Delicious cookbook, which is designed to get kids eating their dreaded greens? Are they sneaking applesauce into Trump's brownies, too?
While aides have reportedly intervened to furnish Trump with his preferred meats on past visits, CNN noted this likely wouldn't be possible in India, as Trump would be sitting for meals with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, a vegetarian based on his religious beliefs. "I don't know what he's going to do in this case," one former official said of the so-called "situation." "They don't serve cheeseburgers."
Thus far in India, at least according to one report, Trump simply isn't touching his plate. India's PTI news agency said the president and first lady didn't eat anything from a specially prepared vegetarian feast at the Gandhi Ashram in Ahmedabad on Monday. Chefs at the Rashtrapati Bhavan, the Indian president's residence, were said to be trying to accommodate Trump at Tuesday's state banquet with a beef alternative: raan ali-shan, marinated and grilled goat legs in a rich gravy.
But as tempting as it is to focus on Trump's childish aversions, there are far more major topics to discuss. For instance, in appearances with Modi, Trump has failed to raise India's nationalist new citizenship bill, which excludes a path to citizenship for Muslims. During Trump's visit alone, 10 people have died in Delhi, amidst violent clashes between those protesting the law and those who support it. Additionally, the Trump Organization—which neither the president nor his daughter/adviser Ivanka Trump has divested from—stands to profit from five real estate projects in India, raising questions about whether the state visit is doubling as one big business meeting. More than Trump's menus, it's these issues that should be food for thought.
