As well it should. When else has food played such an important role in a political story?
Can you think of any other historic orts and estimate their value at eBay auction? There's that cheesesteak with Swiss cheese that John Kerry ordered, without which cheese he might have won the election.
UPDATE: Bad first link corrected after 8 months. I hope you appreciate it!

A chicken in every pot and a car in every garage – Herbert Hoover
and Loaf and as food czar years before his campaign for Prez.
"As well it should."
Pedro sez, "Steeel, professora, deee cleeeck eeet does notheeeng."
If only it had been buns that looked like Mother Theresa, then I could get behind him.
There's the poisoned pawn that Bobby Fisher used in the Najdorf Sicilian.
Bush's legendary non-plastic turkey has to rank high on the list.
Waffles are sexy. They command a higher price.
Clinton's carrot sold for a buck fifty.

LOL.
Nice catch! I didn't "see" ort until you pointed it out. My brain just assumed it was art, I'm guessing.

I dop not remember if it was the 1968 presidential race or the 1964 Senate race, but RFK got into trouble in New York for eating pizza with a knife and fork. Today that is acceptable -- back then it was a no no.
