Laura Bush looks for chef who cooks barbeque.<br /><br />After 11 years as White House chef, Walter Scheib III has been pushed out of the kitchen by First Lady Laura Bush. While Scheib says he wants to leave on a positive note, insiders say that the 'top toque' was unhappy at the Bush's insistence that he give up all French recipes and cooking techniques,<br /><br />Dave

BBQ, Mexican food and steak are all a Texan needs to survive. Isn't that the 3 basic food groups?

I think W wants more TexMex Chow. Certainly French is not a highly sought after food in the USA. Nice Move Laura, you rock.

"WE like spicy food of all kinds"Laura Bush said in Newsweeks Feb 28 issue.(my birthday)"we like,obviously,Tex-Mex and barbeque,...George is a very good eater." <br /><br />French cooking doesen't go over in horse country,thats why they use all them sauces.(my words not Lauras}

Re: Politics aside,my kind of people

what, no french toast? <br />no french fries? <br />no french bread? <br />no escargo? (my car goes just fine, thank you very much) <br />no chocolate marangue pie? <br />and what about pastries? <br />no macaroni & cheese? (that's okay, we got nacho cheese)<br />what about french kissing?<br /><br />In the final words of Marie Antoinette, "ice cream, I said let them eat cake and ice cream!"

The chef needs to get over hisself.<br /><br />Personally... French food is yucky! Hate my steak cooked in butter... I want it grilled!

I always thought the four basic food groups were:<br />1. Pizza<br />2. Meat<br />3. Eggs<br />4. Beer<br />What else is really necessary?

Re: Politics aside,my kind of people

A properly topped pizza DOES cover the four food groups.<br /><br />Of course the "Carb Craze" prevents some folks from a good pizza.<br /><br />>>>>>>>HAPPY BOATING DREAMS<<<<<<<

Which is funny because the French ate horse for ages and horse butchers were common: http://www.slowfood.com/img_sito/riviste/slow/EN/24/equina.html <br /><br />There's an old saying in parts of Europe: "You can lead a horse to water, but you'd have to be French to eat it."<br /><br />As for the basic food groups, everybody has left out Coke.

I fully understand the first family's dislike for this guy's cooking. This post clearly states, "FRENCH recipes and cookin techniques"--- I would expect an emmediate repulsion to french cuisine by a true American president and his family. I'd also be a bit worried about poisoning by this French 'plant' in my midst.<br />

Wait till you have a bleeding heart dem in the White House. They would probably want German, Russian and French food for all their meals. <br /><br />But nothing beat a good old Texan Style Texan BBQ. Open air, plenty drinks, good old hickory or misquite wood smoke.

I heard on the food network that Ronald Regan's favorite food was macaroni and cheese. Another american boy.
