Sen. Susan Collins Makes UMaine Reference in The Daily Caller

The Daily Caller published a report on President Barack Obama not being able to eat a lunch which included “University of Maine lobster salad” after a meeting because his taster was not present. Maine Republican Sen. Susan Collins said the lunch included Gifford’s ice cream, blueberry pie and potato chips made in Aroostook County. Collins was also quoted saying the lunch included a “University of Maine recipe for healthy lobster salad — I pointed that out to the president in keeping with the first lady’s initiatives.” Collins said it was unfortunate that the president could not eat.
