President Biden’s hosting his first White House state dinner tonight for French President Emmanuel Macron, and because of climate change concerns all the food will have been locally and sustainably sourced.
Just kidding!
Check out this menu featuring foods from all around the country:

Macron & all the White House guests should really enjoy this spread:
Butter-poached Maine lobster, beef with shallot marmalade and an American cheese trio will be served when French President Emmanuel Macron takes his seat Thursday as the guest of honor at a red-white-and-blue themed White House state dinner, the first for President Joe Biden.
Dessert will be orange chiffon cake, roasted pears and creme fraiche ice cream.
Everything from the menu to the entertainment to the table settings and other touches for the glitzy dinner were designed by the White House — and first lady Jill Biden — to highlight the ties that bind America and its oldest ally, France.
A state dinner is a high diplomatic honor that the United States reserves for its closest allies.
Democrat Rep. Jared Golden of Maine is among those seeing some hypocrisy in the meal Biden will be enjoying this evening and served up the following criticism:
If the Biden White House can prioritize purchasing 200 Maine lobsters for a fancy dinner, @POTUS should also take the time to meet with the Maine lobstermen his administration is currently regulating out of business. https://t.co/PLiGGopsid

It shouldn’t be surprising considering these are the same people attempting to regulate away fossil fuels while at the same time having no intention of giving up their private jets, etc.
Y’all can all eat pb&js like the rest of America.

And insects… don’t forget the insects.
Was bugs not on the menu?

Yeah, what gives? Hasn’t the Biden White House been reading the Washington Post?

Not tonight, however:
While our rulers dine like kings..
