White House Pastry Chef resigns.


White House losing pastry chef Bill Yosses in June

Yosses has said he was dubbed "The Crust Master" by President Barack Obama, who had a weakness for just about any fruit pie the chef turned out. Last Thanksgiving, for example, the Obama family and guests had their choice of six varieties of Yosses' pies — huckleberry, pecan, chocolate cream, sweet potato, banana cream or coconut cream.

At Christmas, the roughly 300-pound gingerbread White House painstakingly crafted by Yosses was a holiday tour highlight.

Yosses said Mrs. Obama, who leads a nationwide effort to reduce childhood obesity, stoked his interest in the link between food and health. After she became first lady in 2009, his instructions were to make smaller, more healthful desserts.

It's unfortunate that we've come to have to advocate such a joyless eating experience, but that's just the state of things, I suppose. If we were to increase physical activity as a whole we could mitigate much of the damage bad food contributes.

Why not news? You could have read it, and moved on, but you bit the bait, now you're in.

I thought maybe some cons would jump on this story and say something like "well you know, everybody hates Obama, and they're jumping ship like a bunch of rats".

Cons already dissed Obama for a number of things, like they're Putin leg humpers or something.

A pastry chef leaving is not simply not a big deal.Its not a actual government position.

There are some die hard Obama bashers, not really any different than when Bush was president and all the die hard Bush bashers did the same thing.

This does piss me off when they do this ****. I know fox has been running with the "Putin just punked Obama so Obama better do something mantra. Its as though they want another conflict or war or at least want America to spend billions of dollars to make Russia sorry. So **** Russia, **** the Ukraine, they can eat a dick for a all I care.American does not need to make every country its bitch or get involved in the affairs of every country. When Bush was president I do not remember conservatives giving a rats ass what the world thought of us.
 
Michelle just left a SSM couple with one less income. The Obamas really do hate Gays!

He... wasn't fired. :confused:
 
He quit because he loved it there. I wish Eric Holder loved justice enough to quit.

I know, Michelle just bitched at him until he quit.

Um, no, that's not at all accurate. Did you read the same article I did?

He left the job and is expanding on this whole healthy eating thing. He's literally bringing Michelle's efforts to a wider audience.

He plans to move to New York to teach about eating healthier

I really can't fathom how you came to the thought you posted.
