Man, Vlogging through history is my favourite historian YTer along with you. But, I want to know that why you like Grover Cleveland so much, despite of the fact that he was accused for the sex scandal. I still disagree with that 2nd rank, Lincoln could've been there instead. I'll wish to talk about other stuff on President's day
You have no idea how much I wish James Garfield's favourite food was Lasagna
But he definitely doesn't like Mondays, don't get him wrong
Why
@@ampbees you know Garfield the cat? His fav food is lasagna my guy.
@@TheProfessor230 wasn't pres. Garfield shot on a Monday. That's a good reason to hat that
@@MilloSpiegel yeah, that was the joke
“If I had a nickel for every president whose favourite food was squirrel soup, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice, right?”
squirrels were common fare in the 18th & 19th centuries. It is.not bad if you have tried it. Especially if it is fried.
@@jlawrence0181 Sir, this is a reference to an iconic Phineas and Ferb joke.
Our Grandfathers could have paid for 4 movies, 2 newsreels, 2 cartoons, and 2 lottery tickets with that money
Back in more poverty days, in rural Arkansas',we hunted squirrels. Roasted and with gravy, they were delicious. Coon, tolerable, possum, yuck. Greasy. That's why the old folk song, "Keep My Skillet Good and Greasy"☺️☺️☺️!!!
@@servraghgiorsal7382 did the squirrel taste like chicken? I’ve had fried frog legs and alligator bites that pretty much reminded me of chicken.
My mind went straight into the gutter at one point.
"Rutherford Hayes.. Speaking of special recipes, Hayes loved to eat, more than anything his wife lucy-"
I was like " WHOA!! "
"Lucy's--"
SHAVING CREAM, BE NICE AND CLEAN, SHAVE EVERYDAY AND YOU'LL ALWAYS LOOK KEEN
Same !
I think it was intentional but it made me laugh 😆

😂😂😂same
Fun Fact: Thomas Jefferson’s favorite dessert was ice cream. Specifically vanilla ice cream, that he wrote the recipe for himself.
😂😂🎉
He and Biden would love each other
7:02-7:05 “Hayes loved to eat, more than anything, his wife Lucy”
I paused there before he said “pancakes” and died laughing.
I went down the second I heard this to the comments to look for someone who said something about that
He loved to eat what??? 😳😳
🤣🤣🤣
Oh Rutherford, what a romantic
Rutherford going south of the border huh! Where the tuna fish play
Honestly it really just shows you how American cuisine has changed over time. All the latest presidents love their burgers, lots of the middle presidents loved steak, most of the early presidents liked puddings. It is probably just whatever is popular at the time since that's what a president is ultimately a reflection of
I think during the campaign months politicians get used to eating on the go, so fast food may become the default food. 🍔🍗🍟🌮🌯
Except Coolidge. Now I'm gonna need to look up if his wife's recipes are available online. Gotta love Asian food in general.
If you realize we are due for a trend. Well over due the joe Biden puts the trend on the max limit. That's 24 years of burgers that's almost breaking the trends.
@@CrunchWrpSUPREME yeah there hasnt been a massive "every man" food change since the 50s everyone still eats burgers and milkshakes lol
@Oscar Strokosz lol no shit, or a mocha Frappuccino latte with sugar free caramel drizzle served ice cold with a thick dildo straw.
Honestly it’s pretty humanizing to find out the presidents’ favorite foods, it reminds you that even the most powerful people in the world who have had to deal with so many national and international problems all the time still have little joys they get out of life
You forgot to mention that Millard Fillmore died while eating a bowl of soup after calling it mid. His reported last words were “the soup is palatable.”
✅ apple pan dowdy
✅ bread pudding
✅ squirrel stew
✅ sugar pie
I could be a 19th century president
Squirrel?
Same. I was sitting here like:
"Ya know, I love all those things too
@@insertname8807 yah, lot of people still eat stuff like squirrel, racoons, and bears. You don't see that stuff in city's but they taste great
@@redthechaotic1187 ngl possum is bussin
I can’t believe how many people are off put by squirrel
I don't know if this has been commented yet, but fun fact:
The sole reason for the late President Reagan's love for jellybeans was the fact that he used to be a smoker. So everytime he thought about smoking a cigarette, he'd pop some jellybeans.
Might be a good idea for smokers unless you are like me. I gain about a pound per jellybean.
That seems like swapping one addiction for another. Oh well, at least jellybeans are sweet
@@ottodavis-octane3839 i mean... Sugar is more addictive than cocaine, and sugar is a diabetes cause, which doesn't help the USA's diet being so sugar intensive due to the removal of fats.
@Deadpoppin it is, the sugar lobby has been covering it up quite nicely in the USA, demonizing fat, why else is obesity rampant there?
@Deadpoppin Actually, they're right. Studies have proven that sugar is waaaay more addictive than cocaine and other drugs.
Sugar is literally more addictive than most opiod based drugs.
Bread pudding is slightly dried bread cubes mixed into and baked in vanilla egg custard pudding. So the bread soaks up the pudding before it sets up firm. Some people like it with maple syrup and it tastes just like French toast! I like it with cinnamon. The customary topping is lemon curd, much like the lemon stuff inside a lemon pie. Personally, I think it's fantastic.
oh my god... snack time
@@Virtualsinner ☺
It’s absolutely delicious. Some put raisins in it tho yuck
@@laurenharris9832 Yes, raisins or dates or those dried cranberry things. Much better without them. : )
Vinegar pie is actually quite good. I live in Tennessee where it’s still made in certain places. It was a poor man’s substitute for lemon pie as the vinegar was mixed with sugar and other flavorings. It’s actually really close to lemon pie.
When I learned about vinegar in cake, I was like "Wait what?". But when I tried a piece of that vinegar choccy cake, I was pleasantly surprised. The vinegar actually brings out the chocolate taste more. Also, it reduces the sweetness.
It's so bizarre to me that Coolidge's favorite food was Chinese food. Given that the next President after him, Herbert Hoover lived in China for a time, you'd think it would have been him instead.
That might a video idea itself exploring that
@@iammrbeat Yeah, Hoover is obviously a failed President, but his life before he became President I found super interesting. Americans hated him, but others in Europe considered him a savior! Weird legacy.
@@Nemy10X It this what it is. Hoover was a crap president but a good, kind man
@@Snowboi1963 he was a racist person though
@@Nemy10X Hoover also recovered his reputation after he left office similar to Jimmy Carter.
Thomas Jefferson going to Europe and realizing macaroni was a masterpiece that everyone had to try it back home is why I'm glad we live in this timeline. That alone was a hero move.
But I feel for Buchanan. He kept ordering cabbage from the cabbage merchant and Team Avatar keeps ruining his orders with their shenanigans.
People think of Jefferson as being a farmer since he would go on about how farming was the best and most important job anyone could have... but he was in fact quite uninterested in his own farm. What he was really fascinated by was the cuisine, what you could make from a farm's produce. He brought back more than macaroni and cheese from Europe, he also helped popularize ice cream and French fries. He was also one of the first Americans to spread the use of tomatoes, rutabaga, sesame oil, lima beans, okra, cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and eggplant (among others), which were either rare or unheard of at the time Jefferson started planting them at Monticello.
Love this comment! ❤️
Whoa... don't you comment on hungrybox's vids?
You realize this is the only timeline right? The copenhagen interpretation has yet to be disproven.
@@porsche911sbs apparently, he once ate a tomato like an apple in public and people freaked out because tomatoes were still thought to be poisonous (because they're related to hemlock). I hope this is true, because it's such a Jefferson thing to do.
A year ago, before this video was uploaded, my family and I embarked on a challenge to eat every single one of the food items on this list - all consecutively. I'm currently working on a book all about it.
Have you gotten to the squirrel stew yet?
What's with Broccoli being hated so much!? It's Lovely!
Especially fried broccoli.
Hoping for “Every President’s Prior Job/Public Office” next!

LBJ’s love of Mexican food reminded me of how before he became president, he taught at a segregated Mexican-American School, which eventually caused him to support the Civil Rights Movement, at least far back as 1957.

I too eat breakfast for dinner sometimes, delicious as always. My mom always used to call it “Brinner” as well when I was growing up lol you think it would be more common of a saying for this but you’re the first person I’ve ever heard anyone other than my mom saying the term.
your videos remind me so much of the US History teacher I had in high school, he was such a good teacher.
watching your videos give me such nostalgia, your CZcams channel is my confort channel, thank you for dedicating yourself to it so much
There’s something so charming about hearing each president’s favorite foods.
While I believe that public officials should be held at the highest level of scrutiny, I can’t help but think it’s so cute that Jefferson ate Mac n Cheese. Or when Biden said “I just love Ice Cream.” It’s so real and affirming that yes these are people!
Of course we should still criticize our former and current heads of state, but just for a for moment, let’s all just appreciate this video for how it humanizes these figures in a way I’ve never seen explored before. We can put all our politics aside and just all hate that Nixon ate Cottage Cheese and Ketchup every morning.
Good job, Mr. Beat, you’ve united us all once again!
Well put Tommy!
Nixon ate cottage cheese and ketchup.
I disagree, there is something so dehumanizing and absolutely the opposite of "affirming that these are people" when you hear about apple pie made with pork
@@Raspberries9372 yeah that's criminal af
@@Raspberries9372 frankly, worst thing he's done as president.

“Hayes loved to eat, more than anything, his wife Lucy”
Didn’t know Hayes was such a hound dog
The thumbnail makes it look like the Presidents have put all their differences aside and have sat down to eat a dinner that Trump has prepared for them.

This reminds me of how one year in Junior High School, my US history class had a party, and everyone chose a president and then bring some food that they really liked. I chose Eisenhower and found the recipe to his wife's sugar cookies. It was something really easy to do and my Mom loved to bake. Years later, and it's still our favorite sugar cookie recipe.
Can I have the link to the recipe or how to find it

Based on this, I would like to have a meal with either Teddy Roosevelt (already my favorite, but his meal choices sound quite good) and Harry Truman. Good, classic food
One of Truman's favorite foods was actually Dixon's Chilli in Kansas City.

My grandmother was Regan’s secretary when he was Governor of CA. I met him a few times when I was a kid and, he indeed have a jar of jelly beans on his desk he’d let me dip into if my grandmother was ok with it.
woah, thats cool
The Mandarin name "Reagan Candy" comes from former US President Ronald Reagan's favorite hobby of eating jelly beans

Chicken fricassee isn’t just chicken cooked in some sauce. It’s literally one of the greatest browned in butter, then braised/stewed in a mushroom cream and chicken stock based roux sauces ever. That served over rice and baked bacon wrapped asparagus on the side is one of the greatest meals ever. Any time I make it for a dinner party I get rave reviews.
Lincoln knew what’s up.
the way he pronounced fricassee had me so confused at first, I had no clue what the fricussy was lol
@@Harmacist45 that fricussy 😩😩🥵🥵
so is that like a veloute? whats the name of the sauce?
@@supremecud147 It's more of a technique than a specific sauce, but yes - the "sauce" component is similar to a velouté, maybe an allemande. The key is to sauté the meat first, then braise it in the sauce. That's what makes it a fricassee.
@@Revelwoodie ohhh i see thank u very much. im trying to broaden my knowledge and that clarification helps a lot. i appreciate it
My only problem Brinner - it should be Dinfast, because it needs the right order. Brunch at 11-13, Linner at 3-5 and Dinfast at 7-4
Blanc mange is vanilla pudding. Hoppin' John is a southern thing and MUST be eaten every New Years for good luck. Blackeyed peas are simmered with smoked meat: bacon, ham, sausage, or all three, cut into small bite sized pieces. Most people added chopped onion and bell pepper, garlic and salt--with all that smoked meat you don't need much, and pepper. In Texas jalapenos, finely minced are added. Simmer until the peas are very soft, which doesn't take long, especially since fresh, not dried, peas are preferred. Serve over white rice topped with a spicy sauce of your choosing. Homemade or Tabasco are popular. Good stuff!
I’ve never seen a man so knowledgeable about history but so absolutely inept when it comes to culinary arts

Thanks for the absence of snarky ads remarks! Loved it.
As a big Garfield fan, I must defend the choice of squirrel. As stated, he couldn't really eat a lot of rich, fatty cooked foods. Actually one of the causes of his infections getting so bad was his doctors forcing him to eat food like bacon, which he threw up (and losing everything else he ate). So a lean meat like squirrel makes a lot of sense for this dietary condition! On top of that, he grew up poor on the frontier, where game was a more popular food choice.
I know squirrel meat is odd, but it makes sense for dietary and medical reasons.
@@bibianaguadalupeislasherre9880 it also tastes great if prepped correctly.

Vinegar pie is basically an apple pie without apple. Basically a depression pie. We started growing zucchini last season and we made a apple.pie but substituted with zucchini. It's amazing and you can't recognize it's zucchini besides seeds
And the natural sugars of the apple
Oh, like how a zucchini bread still just tastes like a moist cinnamon cake
unless you made it with apple vinegar.
*New England Skepticism
Once while doing a TV spot, Jill Biden introduced something to do with ice cream on that I actually used when hosting a Christmas dinner - we did a sundae bar for dessert but instead of having guests scoop their ice cream from the container, which is messy and takes forever, we used Jill’s technique: the day before, pre-scoop the ice cream and wrap individual scoops in plastic wrap. Then just before serving, unwrap each scoop and put them into a serving bowl (I chilled the bowl first to prevent early melting). Guests simply have to take a scoop or two from the serving bowl with tongs for an instant sundae. It worked out well.
Freaking genius
GHW Bush was missing all the fun with pasta with broccoli and mushrooms. There's an Italian restaurant no far from my hometown that does sides. As much as I love shrimp on my pasta, I get fettuccine alfredo with broccoli and mushrooms. It tastes so awesome! I'm obsessed with Italian food!
I am learning of all kinds of dishes with this video.
You forgot to mention Fillmores last words were about the bowl of soup he was eating. “The nourishment is palatable.”
You scared me when you said “Hayes loved to eat…” and then showed a picture of his wife.
I love soups and stews! I mostly enjoy very flavorful ethnic soups and stews from around the world, though (such as Pho, Caldo de Res, Irish lamb stew, Thai coconut curry chicken soup with lemongrass, and so forth). I doubt that was what Millard Fillmore went for, however, if those sorts of recipes were even available and the ingredients accessible. (I would wager that such a wide variety of gourmet spices were harder to source and much more costly for Americans than they are today.)
Yul have to wait and see!

Doesn’t make up for putting together JFK’s assassination
The fact that you go from him to Mr "cottage cheese and Heinz" weird ass is just priceless
We all know Taft’s favorite food was ALL THE FOOD!
Pretty much
Explains why Taft weighed over 300 pounds.
Surprised that Mr. Beat didn't mention that Taft once feasted on a 26lb opossum during a Thanksgiving dinner at the White House. (That freaks me out more than squirrels). Several presidents enjoyed dining on roadkill like squirrels, possums, and raccoons.
@@russbear31 They enjoyed dining on animals that were killed by vehicles?
That’s the Cincinnati diet for you.
Squirrel Stew is extremely popular in rural parts of the South and Midwest. Squirrel meat is a sweet meat which makes it popular.
7:07 I thought he was gonna say “he loved more than anything his wife lucy” and I think I was gonna have a heart attack 😭
My grandpa has a lot of great stories from when he was in the Navy. He saw LBJ on a visit to one of the bases because one of his crew mates was LBJ’s son in law. He sang the president a few songs, made the president a lot of tejano food and received a hug from the president.
I originally read LBJ as LeBron James lol. And yes I know who the president LBJ actually is 😉
LBJ was a crude man who used to get a big kick out of his own flatulence. Surprised his favorite food wasn’t beans.
Shpuld have put rat poison in it LBJ was a real scumbag
LBJ was also packing so I'm sure your grandpa got some action below the belt from that hug.
So.
Extremely disappointed that you didn't say anything about James Garfield's love of lasagna.
You're thinking of Andrew Garfield, the actor.
I gotta have a good meal
Omg! Lol!
@@jorgeluz9560 no that would be Garfield the Cat
@@toamatoro570 You're eating us out of home, GARMFIELD
I'm from Georgia, we eat Hoppin Johns on New Years day and for basically the rest of the month lol. I've never made it with peas but we have it with collard greens, black eyed peas/cow beans, and the leftover ham from Christmas boiled in with the beans for hours and corn bread. It's really good and I usually don't like most southern foods despite being from here so yeah lol
I'm glad I came across this. I LOVE information to use when ppl aren't educated on Presidential Cuisine
16:27 Teacher: No eating in class! The back:
16:24 No Fries, No Fries 😒
The presidents all started off with these elaborate and unique meals as their favorite foods. But by the modern era, everything was just replaced with junk food and fast food.
God bless America.
Yes, I was noticing as we got to the more modern presidents it was mostly just fast food and burgers 😂
Everything changes in the 1970s.
Yup it shows the downfall of this countries health 😂 I love ice cream and burgers too
Lol on my end my favorite food honestly I love a good steak I know not very healthy but you get a good steak with peppercorn sauce fucking lovely
@@samthecar god
They used to make an oyster sorbet at a really fancy restaurant near Melbourne in Australia. Was pretty crazy stuff
That was fun!
When he was Union general, Grant also had a strange breakfast. A cup of coffee (normal) and a pickle. Depending on how much sleep he got overnight, the cucumber might not have had enough time in the vinegar...
It kinda makes sense in an odd way. Caffeine from the coffee and electrolytes from the pickle. Sorta like something you might have while dieting or fasting.
@@Randumb96 I don’t think so
I love how you've just embraced the part of "president guy".

The most important Mr Beat video to date was the deep dive into why we haven't had President with facial hair. Awesomevideo.
Pickled herring is good. We have it every New Years. It’s a tradition from the old country. You should try it. Most grocery stores sell it by the meat counter (not Deli counter).
The most recent presidents all enjoy fast food. That's interesting when you consider American's diets have gotten worse and fast foods have come to dominate.
Whether they honestly love it (I think so) or are trying to blend it, it's interesting how presidents' food choices reflect their times.
the more particular choices of recent presidents like Nachos and Cheeseburger Pizza reflect the times as well, very thought provoking
I think it might have something to do with campaigning on the road. You have to have something you can stuff into your face quickly between stops on the campaign bus. I'm not sure that can explain Trump's penchant for chicken and burgers though, seeing as he was mostly on his own private jet.
Its hard not to be into fast food now. I quit eating it 2 years ago and still crave the convenient calories pretty often.
Are you... stupid? That’s literally like... normal. Of course their favorite foods reflect the times.
Some of it is true. Some of it is for show. It really depends on how "managed" the politician in question is
Heck, Bush Sr. got in trouble for his broccoli statement because it harmed the broccoli industry
7:02 my heart skipped a beat in anticipation
I was fr scared 😳
@@browngalaxygirl3338 😳
My favorite foods are spaghetti and meatballs, Mac and cheese, different types of pastas like that. But my favorite by far is the Cajun Chicken Fettuccine that my mom makes. Best thing I’ve ever tasted.
Spoon bread is a cornmeal souffle. Very tender, similar to Yorkshire pudding. I remember Mom keeping us from running in and out while baking, so that it would not "fall" while baking! Yum!
Eating a squirrel doesn’t seem _that_ weird when you think about how popular rabbit/hare still is in certain areas of the USA
Lots of people still eat squirrel
I'm australian so we don't get squirrels down here, but id be open to trying it haha
Had no idea it was considered weird till now lol
Yes The only big problem is that there's no Is meat on those emeralds
I like eating rabbit myself too
Society: "Eat your vegetables. They help you live longer."
Me: "Tell that to William Harrison"
(mike drop)
1 month presidency of Harrison.
Harrison dies early in office despite eating so many fresh vegetables
@@iammrbeat He should have worn a coat!
Also Bush jr, who lives into his 90s
@@quakethedoombringer little George Bush isn’t in his ‘90s yet on the 4th of July he’ll be 76 yes that’s George W Bush I said little George Bush to tell him apart from his father I hope you will reply to this
People still eat squirrel up north too! Almost every time I visit family in West Virginia and Pennsylvania (rural, btw), we have what’s basically chicken fried steak but with squirrel. We also eat snake, bear, turtles…kinda anything that can be fried, stewed, smoked, or slathered in gravy lmao
Lol. Haha😂. The banana, part at the end was hilarious😂.
LBJ also guzzled root beer by the gallons (when he wasn't draining fifths of Cutty Sark whiskey). In one book I read that LBJ once ordered Air Force One to make an emergency landing at the Denver Airport. There was a crisis on board because they had ran out of root beer. LBJ was livid and was screaming at the staff. Only an A&W would get him to calm down.
A&W is the best root beer. Can't argue with a man that took his showers with fire hose level pressure.
Hes the final boss for the employees at Denver Intl.
Lol that's great. I never knew that ty ty.
On the cutty, he would have fit in with Washington's 1787 party. 54 bottles of Madeira, 60 bottles of Claret, 8 bottles of Whiskey, 22 bottles of Porter, 8 bottles of Hard Cider, 12 of Beer, 21 bottles of an unnamed wine, and seven bowls of Alcoholic Punch. So given the aberage bottle size then that's about 60 gallons of booze for a closed door party lol
@@pakkmann that's Cap bro Barqs ftw
@@kurtpunchesthings2411 I enjoy a good Barqs. Prefer A&W in the float format though.
I need to watch these just to see Calvin Coolidge. We learned nothing about him in school, and now here I am learning that he mixed weird foods together, was the complete opposite of his wife, and other stuff. What an interesting guy.
It’s bc he was a soft spoken libertarian which is considered “boring” to many historians and teachers. He was one of the ten best Presidents IMO
@@stevescott3735
Calvin coolidge was one of the guys whom never really talked.
@@stevescott3735he was one grade above HW bush at best
Truman was also very fond of Dixon's Chili, a restaurant in his hometown. I've been there and it's amazing
Thanks!
"Rutherford Hayes loved to eat more than anything his wife Lucy....

Lol!
You don't think he paused there intentionally, for effect, do you ?
7:09 thought he was gonna stop at his wife's name.
Don't worry, we all did
Same
Definitely should have
Can we just take a moment to enjoy the golden work of art that is the thumbnail.
Thank you
For George HW Bush, you should've also said that he likes Peking Duck. He started liking it, while he was serving as the US ambassador to China. And boy Peking Gourmet Inn has always been a population destination for both politicians and common American citizens ever since George HW Bush and his family shows up there numerous times. The owner of the restaurant even regarded Mr. Bush senior as a favorite customer.
Thanks for the tip (I just moved to DC)
But holy crap it’s $79 for a duck and all the other entrees are $50-60!
It will have to be a special occasion dinner.
Peking duck is not cheap, duck ain’t cheap in itself and it’s a long process to make
@@deedeeramone34 you can always get half a duck 🦆 for cheaper 💕
I liked seeing the progression of the country through the lens of food, how food evolved through the ages and things, food was more complicated in earlier administrations but as we got closer to the present more presidents like quicker and cheaper food? I also liked the fun fact of how Reagan kept a jar of jelly beans on his desk during his administration
This was GREAT!!!! Thanks👍💙👊Zane
