Celebrity chef Andrew Gruel applauds former President Donald Trump's trip to McDonald's, asserting that it showed a 'humble' side to the former president.

Donald Trump's McDonald's shift has been criticized by many, but one celebrity chef is praising the former president for spotlighting the "hardest" and "often forgotten" position in the food industry: the fry cook. "Nobody thinks about the fry cook. They think about the front of the house. They think about the bartender. They think about the chef. The hardest position is the fry cook. You go home smelling like a french fry.

Business' Stuart Varney doubled down on Gruel's assertion, declaring Trump's McDonald's stop as a "political success." On Wednesday during a campaign stop in Zebulon, Georgia, Trump blamed the rising cost of food on high energy prices, arguing that the Biden administration has "screwed up" American energy. "I get more complaints about groceries, everything from hot dogs to bacon and eggs and everything… They screwed up our energy.

Along with many other restaurateurs, Gruel has thought long and hard about which candidate would be best for the industry, pointing out that many of his peers have raised concerns over the cost of goods going "through the roof" under the Biden-Harris administration. " cost of goods was way down. Sales were way up. You know, there were great real estate opportunities under the Trump administration. Under the Biden-Harris administration, cost of goods went through the roof.
