Food Taster?! White House Suggests French Restaurant Is Full of Crepe - Political Punch

"The White House today denied a recent report in French media that the president had a food 'taster' in the kitchen of the 'La Fontaine de Mars' restaurant"

To be serious for a moment, I'm pretty sure that the people in the restaurant must have been referring to the Secret Service guy who traditionally watches how the president's food is prepared. If I remember right, that's been standard procedure every time any president has eaten out. If someone poisoned the president, we'd all be up in arms about how the Secret Service failed us.
