Teddy wasn’t the only pres with exotic animals. Coolidge had a hippo, for instance. But for generations, it’s been just dogs and cats. And I don’t think Trump owns any pets, due to allergies.
Re the lobster: From kwmc.com: " Pennsylvania may have Punxsutawney Phil, but Maine has Passy Pete.
Passy Pete is a local lobster and apparently quite skilled at predicting the weather.
Each September he is plucked from the water, but rather than using his shadow, Passy Pete uses his claw to select from two scrolls, one for winter and one for summer.
On Monday, Passy Pete predicted six more weeks of summer for Maine.
“Now, the last two years he was right both years. In mid-October, it was still 65 degrees in Belfast and that’s pretty close to summer for Maine,” said local businessman David Crabiel.
Passy Pete is now back in the water basking in the warmth of his prediction.

Is the lobster an TV weatherperson or something?

If and when the lobster misses a prediction, it’s going to suddenly get very hot.

How does it predict the weather and how is love misleading to anyone but a dumb govt official.

The FDA didn’t rule that the bakery can’t say that its good are made with love, only that love can’t be listed as an actual ingredient.

Without more information, the lobster item is meaningless.

Too bad the FDA wasted time there, rather then blocking the Opioid pill epidemic.

Somehow I think you need more than two items to make a row.
