Is Barack Obama a vegatarian? He turned down a philly cheesesteak & that was a big story.?

Question

I just watched a film clip which showed people from years ago & this was an old clip & he looked great & he looks great now so he takes care of himself. I was wondering if anyone has seen him eat meat or knows anything that would tell one way or the other if he is a vegetarian. When he was a community organizer the women he worked with said they used to worry about him cause he was so skinny. They were like mother hens to him. They said that he would end up eating a salad.

Answer 1

Michelle Obama told the ladies on The View that her husband eats bacon.  So, no.

Answer 2

No he wasn't a vegetarian he ate some ham in Philadelphia and there exists a newspaper clipping

Answer 3

All I know is he has a love of Dominoes Pizza

Answer 4

Maybe it's a vegetarian big story.

Nobody else cares, maybe he

A. Didn't want a cheesesteak at the moment

B. Is lactose intolerant

c. Wanted to make self-righteous vegetarians think they had a public hero

Answer 5

I don't know, but I would consider that to be a great attribute if he was a vegetarian. Of course, there are those who would jump all over him and brand him a weirdo or whatever for not eating meat. It shouldn't be an issue, but I am sure if he was a vegetarian his oponents would find a way to try to discredit him because of it. I can hear it now, "What does Barrack Obama have against our hard working American ranchers?" etc...

Answer 6

Nope, he's not a vegetarian.

This article ( http://www.philly.com/dailynews/local/20... ) says he turned down the cheesesteak but he was eating the ham in the same shop.  

Answer 7

Unfortunately, no.  I saw a clip of him eating chickens' flesh.  If he turned down a cheesesteak, he could be lactose intolerant.
