Over the weekend, the Wall Street Journal had an interesting article about the candidates dining preferences, called “The Candidates Dine Out.” So Good was cited as a source in the article, with the WSJ referencing information from to my post on Obama’s eating habits:
And back in Chicago, Sen. Obama’s idea of a fast meal is to order from a scruffy minimall pizza place near his South Side house called Italian Fiesta Pizzeria, according to the food site So Good Blog and other Internet chroniclers. (A spokesman for Sen. Obama’s campaign, Bill Burton, would neither confirm nor deny these accounts.) We found little to like at this cramped storefront place, just a window for placing orders and a thin-crust pizza that was gloppy and low on flavor.
Check out the full article HERE, interesting read.

James, I’ve never tried it. No idea if it is low on flavor, that was the Wall Street Journal writers take.

[...] In February, when news of Barack Obama’s eating habits and favorite foods were scattered, sparse, and damn near impossible to find, So Good scoured the internet in order to put together a post on Barack Obama’s favorite foods. Since that time, I’ve seen the post widely cited in stories about Obama’s favorite foods, from blogs to the Wall Street Journal. [...]
