I ate Trump's absurd, 2,430-calorie McDonald's order - and it was even worse than I imagined
Hollis Johnson/Business Insider
- President Donald Trump is a big fan of fast food.
- A new book outlines Trump's favorite McDonald's order: two Big Macs, two Filet-O-Fishes, and a large chocolate milkshake.
- I ate that all in one sitting, and it was a gastronomic nightmare.
It's a well-documented fact that President Donald Trump loves fast food.
And as attested to in a new book written by two of his former campaign aides, his go-to from McDonald's is quite the tall order.
The president's typical order at the Golden Arches is two Big Macs, two Filet-o-Fish sandwiches, and a large chocolate shake - malted, according to the book. That's a lot of calories for one meal - 2,430 in all.
I'm a big fan of McDonald's myself - my shameless love of the Big Mac is public knowledge. It's my go-to order at McDonald's, no less. Of course, I only order one, but who's counting? I'm assuming running a global business enterprise takes a lot of energy, never mind leading the free world.
So, I decided to try Trump's beefy and brash lunch choice to truly immerse myself in the down-to-earth culinary tastes of one of the most powerful men in the world.
