Campaign Food Report

Magazine food editor w/ a former life as White House advance staff. Focusing on the fun side of campaigning, where eating and drinking in politics is never OTR.

There will be plenty of coverage of the #2020campaign. But will it be about the issues that really matter to people? Or will it be about the pizza, ice cream and beer pit stops between real news events? Here's raising a glass to the latter. And to the resulting pitfalls.

Polly’s is a must visit in northern NH and one of the best places to eat in New England.

[DJ Judd @DJJudd]

Pete Buttigieg stopped by Polly’s Pancake Parlor in Sugar Hill, NH for a retail stop this morning. I’m told Buttigieg and husband Chasten got pancakes to go.

Is this why @ewarren is proposing a #WealthTax?

@rebeccalipson @janicero And she tweets about food. (Although it wouldn’t hurt to do more often.)

@CampaignFoodRep the actual Ben and Jerry serving ice cream for Bernie in N.H. #nhpolitics

[Campaign Food Report @CampaignFoodRep]

@ChrisMalloy That’s top notch.

[Steve Bullock @GovernorBullock]

Hey @JoeBiden — next time you’re in Decorah, you’ve got to stop in to The Sugar Bowl Ice Cream Company. Highly recommend the Salted Caramel!

[Lara Henderson @LaraMHenderson]

Thank you to the @amyklobuchar team for the breakfast pizza this morning! 😍 #Friendship2020

[Civil Eats @CivilEats]

Nearly 20 percent of people in Philadelphia are food insecure. These are the researchers, restaurateurs, and entrepreneurs trying to change that number by rethinking food waste. https://t.co/fYZeWSVkEg

Focusing on the food for a minute... @SenGillibrand never shied away from the fun side of campaigning. She kicked off her campaign in a diner. She ran a beer pong ad spot. Plus, without her, there would be no Ranch Girl.

[Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand]

Today, I am ending my campaign for president.

I am so proud of this team and all we've accomplished. But I think it’s important to know how you can best serve.

To our supporters: Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. Now, let's go beat Donald Trump and win back the Senate.

[Siena Chrisman @sienachrisman]

I’ve been waiting my whole career for pres. candidates (or anyone!) to seriously discuss real farm policy reform; I’m still astonished that they finally are. I wrote abt why it’s a big deal in my latest @CivilEats. @ewarren @berniesanders https://t.co/ZCaBfPb25t

@sactotrixie I honestly thought, before I clicked, that we were heading into nuke a tornado territory.

@J_PriceSC @espn @timkaine would be down for this.

Joe Biden at Lindy’s Diner in Keene, NH, where he ordered a grilled cheese and a chocolate and vanilla milkshake.

2020 campaigns. Had fun in Iowa? Then don’t sleep on the #mnstatefair. Where else can you find grain/rice/seed art of the one and only #schittscreek @danjlevy?📷: @biggayicecream. Art by @StPauliGrrrl.
