President Obama Gets Dish Named After Him at Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles

President Obama Gets Dish Named After Him at Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles

President Obama Gets Dish Named After Him at Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles

Not only is Barack Obama the first sitting U.S. president to publicly support gay marriage, but he’s also become the first to have his own dish on the Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles menu.

From TMZ:

The legendary chicken joint officially renamed a menu item after Obama after the Commander-In-Chief chowed down on the famous 3-wing "Country Boy" special back in October.

At the time, the owners claimed they would NOT rename the item after Obama ... in fairness to Reagan and Nixon, who were also regulars ... but don't have any items named after them.

Guess the Roscoe's people had a change of heart ... 'cause the Country Boy is OUT.

You can now order the “Obama’s Special” (3 wings with a waffle, potato salad or french fries) for $8.90.
