There's one food that was 'off the table' for Melania Trump as she refused to eat it during her time as First Lady.
When private chefs and pretty much any meal you desire are at your fingertips - it makes being a picky eater a whole lot easier.
Something tells me that chicken nuggets and pizza aren't a regular staple in the White House, but there was something for Melania that was totally off the cards.

Melania, 54, and her husband, Donald, 78, are set to return to the White House after he beat Kamala Harris in the 2024 US presidential election.
However, she gave the world an insight into her first stint in the White House - from 2017 to 2021 - in her memoir, Melania, which was released just weeks before the election took place.
In the 256-page book, she shared her belief that women should have the right to control their own bodies, defended son Barron from criticism over his alleged 'autism' and also opened up about her dietary preferences.

As per MailOnline, the 54-year-old former model wrote: "I made it known that I do not eat raw fish."
Reflecting on a state visit to Japan with Donald five years ago, Melania penned: "However, I still made an effort to try local cuisine whenever possible.
"That night in Tokyo, the meal was a delicious blend of flavours and textures, showcasing the best of Japanese cuisines while accommodating my preferences."

The impressive six-course meal was held at Tokyo's Imperial Palace, where the pair tucked into 'côte de boeuf rôti' and 'glace mont fuji'.
During the same visit, they had a traditional wagyu beef steak dinner, with former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and his wife Akie Abe.
However, all the classic Japanese raw fish meals were off the menu.

Melania's relationship with Donald has also sparked confusion after a source claimed the pair - who have been married since 2005 - didn't sleep in the same room together while they resided at the White House.
American journalist Michael Wolff published a book titled Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House back in 2018.
He wrote: "I don’t know any couple that spends as much time apart.
"They are often in the same building, but nowhere near each other.

"She [Melania] rarely goes into the West Wing.
"She doesn’t like to golf. She has her own little spa. She likes to be isolated."
Tyla previously contacted a Trump campaign representative for comment.
