A wonderfully entertaining, often surprising history of presidential taste, from the grim meals eaten by Washington and his starving troops at Valley Forge to Trump’s fast-food burgers and Biden’s ice cream—what they ate, why they ate it, and what it tells us about the state of the nation—from the coauthor of Julia Child’s bestselling memoir My Life in France"[A] beautifully written book about how the presidential palate has helped shape America. . . . Fascinating."—Stanley Tucci
Some of the most significant moments in American history have occurred over meals, as U.S. presidents broke bread with friends or foes: Thomas Jefferson’s nation-building receptions in the new capital, Washington, D.C.; Ulysses S. Grant’s state dinner for the king of Hawaii; Teddy Roosevelt’s groundbreaking supper with Booker T. Washington; Richard Nixon’s practiced use of chopsticks to pry open China; Jimmy Carter’s cakes and pies that fueled a détente between Israel and Egypt at Camp David.
Here Alex Prud’homme invites readers into the White House kitchen to reveal the sometimes curious tastes of twenty-six of America’s most influential presidents and the ways their choices affected food policy around the world. And the White House menu grew over time—from simple eggs and black coffee for Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War to jelly beans and enchiladas for Ronald Reagan and arugula for Barack Obama. What our leaders say about food touches on everything from our nation’s shifting diet and local politics to global trade, war, class, gender, race, and so much more.
Prud’homme also details overlooked figures, like George Washington’s enslaved chef, Hercules Posey, whose meals burnished the president’s reputation before the cook narrowly escaped to freedom, and pioneering First Ladies, such as Dolley Madison and Jackie Kennedy. As he weaves these stories together, Prud’homme shows that food is not just fuel when it is served to the most powerful people in the world. It is a tool of communication, a lever of power and persuasion, and a symbol of the nation.
Included are ten authentic recipes for favorite presidential dishes, such as: *Martha Washington’s Preserved Cherries, *Abraham Lincoln’s Gingerbread Men, *William H. Taft’s Billy Bi Mussel Soup, *Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Reverse Martini, *Lady Bird Johnson’s Pedernales River Chili

Mag-Safe Magnetic
Great product! The MagSafe compatibility is perfect—it snaps right on instantly. I prefer this over the wireless charging mounts because those always seem to overheat my phone on long trips. This is lightweight, stable, and the all-black aesthetic blends right into the Tesla screen frame. 10/10 for any Tesla owner.

Perfect Little Mount for Tesla Drivers
I like that this Tesla phone mount snaps onto the back of the screen cleanly and holds my iPhone with a strong MagSafe grip. It keeps the phone right where I need it without blocking the view, and the adjustable angle makes navigation super easy to see while driving.
I do not like that it can wobble a tiny bit on rough roads, and the magnet isn’t as strong if you’re using a thicker case.
Overall, a great accessory that makes the Model 3/Y setup even more convenient!

Tesla MagSafe mount for phone
Very cool phone mount that I hadn’t thought to purchase until I saw it as an option on Vine. Easy to install using the included adhesive strips pre-attached to the mount.
It has a nice firm grip on the MagSafe for the phone and the mount itself sticks very well to the back of the Tesla screen with no issues. It is in the perfect location in the dashboard area as it doesn’t block any view or buttons.
No negative aspects to my experience with this product.

Arm can be positioned in many ways, but doesn't grip as hard and the phone rattles in rough roads
I liked how this product looked in the picture so I ordered it. But when I installed it, I found out that it doesn't have the same amount of "grip power" because you have to turn a little knob on the side to tighten the grip and it's not that easy to do compared to other screw type phone mounts that have bigger screws. The magnet was slightly weaker than my existing phone holder but it was adequately strong. It was good to see how one could position the phone in different positions due to the way the arm is designed to be moved and adjusted. But the one biggest thing I didn't like is how the phone kept on shaking/rattling when I drove over rough roads. The metal arm is quite thin and although it's metal and not plastic, due to the thinness of the material, it was easily rattled and made the phone rattle a lot in return. Over smooth roads this won't be a big problem though. I wasn't quite satisfied with this, although it's adequately good enough.
