Donald Trump has embarked on his first foreign trip as president and is scheduled to travel to five countries — including Saudi Arabia and Israel — in the span of nine days.
With Trump off US soil for the first time as president, people are sharing a pretty demanding — but totally fake — list of the president's catering requirements for the trip.

The list includes six boxes of double-stuffed Oreos, unwrapped and stacked in rows of eight, two cartons of KFC paper napkins — specifically KFC — three gallons of buttermilk, three microwave ovens, which must remain unplugged, and five maps of the electoral college win.
The list appears to have originated with a government parody account, which tweeted it on Friday.

Real or fake, the jokes rolled in:
Trump Gets Double-Stuffed Oreos; Everyone Else Gets Single-Stuffed
@RogueSNRadvisor I just gained 20 lbs and went into a sugar coma reading that list
Most people agreed the list was pretty outrageous.
@tomcolicchio Not even if my 5 year old made a request list would it look like Trump's.
@RogueSNRadvisor @50inaug Clearly this man doesn't understand healthy eating. This is like a bachelor, or someone d… https://t.co/b4F7S07ceU
In conclusion:
The Trump catering menu thing is obviously fake, but if it was true, it'd only be like the 8th most outrageous thing in the last 2 weeks
Alas, the White House did not respond to a questions on the authenticity of this list.
