Politicians never say anything without a motive. Inevitably, they’re trying to endear themselves to voters. Or they want to persuade you to join their cause. Or they just like to lie. Sometimes it’s hard to tell. The point is, it’s pretty hard to trust anything that comes out of their mouths. Even if they’re talking about what they like to stuff their pie hole with. Take Nancy Pelosi, for example.
The 81-year-old speaker of the house recently spilled the beans about her sweet tooth while on an episode of the River Cafe Table 4 podcast. Apparently, Pelosi has had a lifelong penchant for chocolate, and cravings for the treat plague her to this day.
Host Ruthie Rogers asked Pelosi if it’s true that she eats chocolate ice cream for breakfast.
“It’s not an urban myth,” Pelosi replied. “It’s convenient, it’s right there, it has a long shelf life, you don’t have to worry about it. I have it for breakfast. It’s a great way to start the day.”
We don’t disagree, but, come on, even we know a pint of Ben & Jerry’s isn’t exactly the breakfast of champions.
“I don’t have it every day, but I have it often,” Pelosi clarified. “When I was younger, I used to have it before I went to sleep — a pint of chocolate ice cream. But as time has gone by, the later the chocolate, the less sleep I have.”
Pelosi even related a tale of a time her brother brought home vanilla ice cream for her, but she hid it under the bed and refused to eat it because it wasn’t chocolate.
OK, now you’ve gone too far! We’re all for ice cream preferences, but we would never turn up our noses at a frozen dessert, no matter the flavor. It’s offenses like these that separate politicos from everyday people.
