| (Banquet Woodcut from Lyons, 1517 CE) |
This
time around it's for President Trump et
al., and no expenses have been spared. The
menu was “six months in the planning,” and
the table settings took three days to complete. All in all, it must have cost a pretty
pound.
You might think that every morsel would be
chewed with exquisite precision. And yet,
the Queen has been politely described as
a “brisk eater.” This means that most others
will have to scarf things down if they,
too, cherish civility.
There
is, however, one mighty exception. As the "guest of honor," Donald Trump is officially
exempt from all such restraints. This could be a refreshing change of pace from all that previous junk food.
