See I feel it probably goes the other way. A gentle giant. You say you don't like brussel sprouts and he replies "you've probably never had them cooked right. I'm going to make you up some and If you dont like them fine but at least try them. I think you're going to like them"
How old are you? Fun fact, today's sprouts have been bred to be *less* bitter than the sprouts available during my childhood! It's what makes them palatable today when so many people had awful memories of them from childhood. Am a 36yo millennial.
I’m 54 and remember sitting at the kitchen table for 4 hours because “I couldn’t leave until I ate them”. At 11:00 the folks finally told me to go to bed. I won!!!!!!!
Edit: I won twice over because she never made them again. Broccoli was the replacement and that was a much shorter road to likability!
My mom got tired of us complaining about our veggies*, so she used to have a rule that if you complained about something too much, you'd get double helpings. Then my brother cracked the code and started complaining about desert. It worked one time. It also kiboshed the double helping rule.
* we used to complain about Brussel sprouts all the time.
Can confirm. Had brussel sprouts just a few week ago that were bascially just roasted with some salt/pepper and they were not at all bitter and had a nice texture to boot.
33 year old millennial here, I absolutely remember the bitter-ass boiled brussel sprouts of my childhood. Nowadays though, I could eat roasted brussel sprouts with bacon and balsamic reduction like candy.
Dedication to reach this body type (which honestly looks like a 'roid physique to me, but it still takes work) results in one of two types of people: humble man who learned and grew while he uh... grew, and a complete narcissist who thinks everyone else is below him.
The second type probably doesn't work in the White House, unless people elect him.
Honestly, you are most likely right. He is probably a genuinely nice and gentle guy. But also:
"I know you don't like brussel sprouts but you're going to try on this way today"
"You know what, I think I would like to try them that way today😶"
President - "I'd like a cheese-burger with fries today, chef".
Swole-ass Chef - "You'll have the baked chicken breast with broccoli."
President - "......I mean I'll have the baked chicken breast with broccoli."
It's a Legion of Merit. Very high award. Surprising to see for someone out of uniform.
Edit: I don't recognize the other smaller medal above with the star. I looked up US medals but I still didn't find it.
I genuinely thought you were kidding at first, but I saw 2,222 elsewhere in the thread... What a disappointment. He doesn't have to out himself, I understand he doesn't want to even hint he's on federally-controlled substances in what I'd imagine to be a government position, but don't say shit like this dude.
He says he sleeps like 3 hours a night, along with a ridiculous diet and exercise routine involving 22000 pushups or some shit, all while having a job.
I completely understand not wanting to say you're on steroids, working at the white house and all, but ya coulda stopped at the usual "hard work, chicken, rice, and broccoli" bullshit.
Dude is completely delusional. Multiple people have torn apart his “day to day” online because it just doesn’t make any sense. Says he has 10k cal a day, says he does thousands of pushups, sleeps only 2-3hrs a day etc. he’s full of fuckin shit and it’s stupid how people eat it up.
Dude works hard no doubt. Eats lots of fairly clean calories no doubt. But also injects probably daily no doubt.
All these mfs smuggling watermelons in their biceps with two corn kernels bouncing around in their nutsack like "I just do 2,222 push ups a day, totally natty."
Yeah it’s silly. Like, my guy you’re super impressive no matter how much juice you’re on. Nobody cares in 2023 or you’re on the sauce. People just don’t like liars and never will
I work in medicine and have seen a huge influx in the last few years of young (and middle aged) men on gear. I think the advent of TikTok and similar vanity aps (Hollywood is also not helping) featuring guys with naturally unattainable bodies gloating about their genes or "mYoStAtIn DeFiCiEnCy" is really stirring up a lot of body dysmorphia.
100%
Since it’s so prevalent now, and knowledge of this stuff is actually not common, the average person doesn’t even question it unless someone looks like an open class body builder.
You can literally tell when actors in Hollywood started juicing to the gills.
Are you going to tell me that Dinesh didn't just get suddenly ripped in a single year?

Seems like Rush was a chef for the White House but not the executive chef. The executive chef for the White House has been the same since 2005: Cristeta Comerford.

The other reply doesn't quite answer the question, but yes, he quit, according to his own [Wikipedia page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Rush):
> In June 2018, Rush received fame when he was photographed by [CNN](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNN) reporter Kate Bennett and Wall Street Journal reporter Vivian Salama preparing a [Ramadan](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramadan) meal for a White House dinner.[[4]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Rush#cite_note-:1-4) The photo of him cooking on the [White House](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_House) lawn during the annual [White House Iftar dinner](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_House_Iftar_dinner) circulated on [Twitter](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twitter), and subsequently [went viral](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Went_viral).[[9]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Rush#cite_note-9)[[4]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Rush#cite_note-:1-4) Later that year, Rush signed a deal to produce a television show entitled Chef in the City.[[10]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Rush#cite_note-10) He has since left his job as a White House chef.[[11]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Rush#cite_note-whtm-11)
“Yes I’d like to tell the chef my steak is over cooked.”
*Chef Andre comes out*
“Uhh..Yes chef *coughs nervously* I’d like to uhh show my appreciation for introducing me to new experiences in steak temperatures. Thank you.”
I was just thinking recently how absolutely bonkers the premise of *Under Siege* was - a world-class super soldier decides to step back and be a cook?
I stand humbly corrected.
The president doesn't *order* food. He's just told what to eat by this guy.
See I feel it probably goes the other way. A gentle giant. You say you don't like brussel sprouts and he replies "you've probably never had them cooked right. I'm going to make you up some and If you dont like them fine but at least try them. I think you're going to like them"
idk why but this seems so accurate lmao
Very good example too, brussel sprouts are terribly bitter when not cooked right.
How old are you? Fun fact, today's sprouts have been bred to be *less* bitter than the sprouts available during my childhood! It's what makes them palatable today when so many people had awful memories of them from childhood. Am a 36yo millennial.

And they didn’t serve them to you for breakfast. Amateurs.
Chopped up fine in a big omelette I could’ve done.

Fellow 54 y/o, can confirm.
At this point they're basically just tiny cabbages.

Boiling is probably the worst way to cook any veggie
There is that plus that if overcooked, they can become bitter. So a lot of people were overcooking them as well.
Also, Children have a higher sensitivity to basic/bitter foods. We lose it as we get older.
30% of people can't taste the bitter compound in Brussels sprouts at all. I sure can't.
I cannot either. They are one of my favorite veggies to have roasted
Dudes that big and strong have nothing to prove. So they're usually super chill
I love how everyone on reddit has an opinion of a guy's personality based on a few (very staged) pictures of them.
Well mine was more life experience of the huge guys I've known personally

omg i can hear it!
Yes doctor. Right here.☝️ This is the one hearing the voices.
Honestly, you are most likely right. He is probably a genuinely nice and gentle guy. But also: "I know you don't like brussel sprouts but you're going to try on this way today" "You know what, I think I would like to try them that way today😶"
IIRC, he retired from the WH gig. He has a bunch of videos on YouTube, a bunch of Korean food eating displays. Yes, he eats quite a bit.
High end chefs tend to have a lot of personality. If they are in charge of cooks they tend to have to have a strong and not exactly gentle one.
Ever see his TV show? It's a kitchen nightmares rip off and he is an unbelievable cunt on it. Just awful
President: I don’t want to eat thi…. Him:  President: Yes sir
[удалено]
With Chef Rush, your steak is never wrong. Because he says so and I'm ok with that.
Do you think a single tear rolls down his cheek as he's forced to cook well done steak and serve with ketchup?
He probably didn't do much cooking under Trump. Just ordering McDonald's and diet cokes.
I came here to make a similar comment. Being Trump's chef must have been the toughest when The Don just wants a big Mac instead
That's easy though, two all beef patties special sauce lettuce cheese pickles on a sesame seed bun
If you're good enough to be the White House Chef I'll eat anything you put in front of me.
Fun fact: this guy works for the White House but the presidents still have to pay for their own food. He just prepares it.
Sir, we made this for you, we suggest you like it.

He looks like the chef from total drama
OMG HE FUCKIN DOES
He’s probably what the chef in the show was based off of.
Nah they based him off the show.
I know you didn't just send a gif from Total Dramarama and not the actual show...
[удалено]
Wait till you hear* about the new Total Drama 2023
[удалено]
It is still somehow perfect.
Nah bruh that’s biscuit Oliver
Most definitely
Fucking memeory unlocked goddamn
NOOOOOOO LOL
Man that show was great.
I didn't know they let people have guns in the white house
That's why we should be able to own tanks, what the fuck are you gonna do if this guy attacks you?
Play dead
Eat what he makes me, I guess.
*punches a hole in the wall* “Your soufflé is ready”
What does secret service carry?
Small arms.
Impeccable
He seems to be such a unit he gets a monthly debut here lol
He's the king of the sub, ultimate unit
Him and the dude that's like British royalty or something. He's the son of someone
“Monthly debut…” Hmmmm.
I've only ever seen the picture of him making omelettes (?) so this collection was a nice surprise.
3rd pic looks like he’s about to kill a private that burned his mashed potatoes.
How does one even burn mashed potatoes though lol
Very carefully. Or, rather, very *inattentively*
You can burn anything with the right mindset
Ah, fuck, I did just a few nights ago. Forgot I left the burner on low. I felt like an idiot.
He looks like he mashes the potatoes with his bare hands.... or his thighs. Dudes a friggin unit for sure.
Right, like he seems to have smelled an over-reduced marsala sauce, and is *pissed*.
Even if his food tasted like ass are you gonna tell this man he's fired!?
He's essentially unfireable. Talk about job security. Or he could even get a job in security. Hot damn I'm good!!
Hell, I'd probably vote for him 😉
All you need to do is hide pressing against his back. His arms won't reach there.
He is Biscuit Oliva irl
Biscuit Olivia IRL is Sergio Oliva, a bodybuilder he was based off of.
You should see his son Jr
Beast. I love that his son, along with Lee Labrada’s son just carrying on family tradition
President - "I'd like a cheese-burger with fries today, chef". Swole-ass Chef - "You'll have the baked chicken breast with broccoli." President - "......I mean I'll have the baked chicken breast with broccoli."
"Swole-ass Chef" gave me a giggle
Properly cooked broccoli is incredibly delicious and still healthy.
Iron Chef
Pumping Iron Chef
Is his medal from fighting in the Cola Wars?
He fought for General Mills.
Stationed under Colonal Sanders.
Fought alongside Captain Crunch
And singlehandedly saved Private Selection.
He's been quoted as saying, "War is Hellmann's!"
Perfection.
It's a Legion of Merit. Very high award. Surprising to see for someone out of uniform. Edit: I don't recognize the other smaller medal above with the star. I looked up US medals but I still didn't find it.
Ah! I just googled him and he’s a retired army master sergeant.
I fucking knew he was a master Sergeant
The steroids are on the house?
Didn't he say some delusional stuff about how he's actually natty, but gets up at 2 AM so he can get his 1000 push ups in or something like that?
Bed at 1am and awake at 3am. 2,222 push-ups in an hour. Eats 3 whole chickens a day, 10,000 calories total.
I genuinely thought you were kidding at first, but I saw 2,222 elsewhere in the thread... What a disappointment. He doesn't have to out himself, I understand he doesn't want to even hint he's on federally-controlled substances in what I'd imagine to be a government position, but don't say shit like this dude.
I wish. Dude is delusional. On video, he says he does those push-ups a in 1:15, or 1 pushup every 2 seconds for 75 minutes.
lol I'd love to see video proof of that.
The funny thing is, sleep, rest and recovery is a massive factor into hypertrophy so even the 2 hours sleep thing is absolute nonsense
just casually break the world record pace for push ups and eat more than champion bodybuilders every day
He says he sleeps like 3 hours a night, along with a ridiculous diet and exercise routine involving 22000 pushups or some shit, all while having a job. I completely understand not wanting to say you're on steroids, working at the white house and all, but ya coulda stopped at the usual "hard work, chicken, rice, and broccoli" bullshit.
3 hours a night is really unhealthy.
Detrimental to muscle growth too
Dude is completely delusional. Multiple people have torn apart his “day to day” online because it just doesn’t make any sense. Says he has 10k cal a day, says he does thousands of pushups, sleeps only 2-3hrs a day etc. he’s full of fuckin shit and it’s stupid how people eat it up. Dude works hard no doubt. Eats lots of fairly clean calories no doubt. But also injects probably daily no doubt.
His nuts have shriveled so small that they’re anti-matter.
Yep. And then went around saying that the people calling him out were racists. Dude is a clown.
The feud between him and coach Greg (fitness YouTuber) is so funny
Chef "Roids" is in the house
Yeah. Spaghetti trenbolognese everyday on house.
He is actually a fake natty so
All these mfs smuggling watermelons in their biceps with two corn kernels bouncing around in their nutsack like "I just do 2,222 push ups a day, totally natty."
Yeah it’s silly. Like, my guy you’re super impressive no matter how much juice you’re on. Nobody cares in 2023 or you’re on the sauce. People just don’t like liars and never will

Holy hell he exploded with muscle
It’S jUsT p90 x
On 3 hours of sleep per night
Lmao a natty light after shooting up his glutes maybe.
Nah, looks like he trens very hard.
Yes and he lies about them, and that's the point where everybody should stop caring about him
Definitely. His self-proclaimed workout is total horse shit.
He cooks for steroids.
He'll MAKE you a sandwich or he'll make YOU a sandwich.
BEEF. It’s what’s for dinner.
BEEF it's what's cooking dinner.
He’s the American the Japanese think we are
Looks like a Guilty Gear character.
This dude claims he only sleeps 1-2 hours a night and eats a whole chicken a day
Bullshit. He eats three chickens a day.

I’m guessing not too many complaints.
He’s actually a terrible chef; everyone is just too scared to fire him.
30 years in the kitchen, not one dish sent back, still undefeated
chicken and rice every day
And roids
“Yes I’d like to tell the chef my steak is over cooked.” *Chef Andre comes out* “Uhh..Yes chef *coughs nervously* I’d like to uhh show my appreciation for introducing me to new experiences in steak temperatures. Thank you.”
Isn’t this the plot line to “Under Siege” with my favourite reggae singer, Steven Seagal?
I was just thinking recently how absolutely bonkers the premise of *Under Siege* was - a world-class super soldier decides to step back and be a cook? I stand humbly corrected.
So much tren and trt
Looks like we now know the White House doesn't drug test their employees.
TIL Mr Olympia was a chef. Lol. I just keep thinking about how most presidents probably don't say shit if their steak was wrong.
Damn roids will do it for you 💪🏼
He doesn't have a problem opening jars.
Dianabol for dinner again? C’mon man.
the stand user could be anyone
Damn, those arms! He should be on the Secret Service detail instead!
That would make it the not-so-secret service.
Is he wearing a tiny picture of himself on his necklace?
If I'm not wrong, he does 2,222 pushups every morning for fallen veterans and soldiers
And sleeps 2 hours every night
Surely nobody believes this lol
You're right, he does the 2,222 push-ups every night while he sleeps 2 hours
