During the interview, Seacrest asked President Biden about the holiday foods he had been enjoying during his recent trips to Camp David and St. Croix, the U.S. Virgin Islands. Biden enthusiastically replied, “I’ve been eating everything that’s put in front of me! I’ve eaten pasta, which I love. Eaten a lot of chicken, chicken parmesan, I’ve been eating all Italian foods basically—” But before he could continue, Jill Biden reminded him, “And ice cream.”
“And ice cream,” the president repeated, with a smile. “Chocolate chip ice cream.”
President Biden’s love for ice cream is well-documented and has often been criticized, especially when he indulges in it during times of crisis. In October 2022, he even boasted about the “strong as hell” economy while enjoying a cone, despite the rising prices of ice cream due to inflation.

During another instance, a reporter asked President Biden about the strength of the dollar. While attempting to chew, Biden replied, “I’m not concerned about the strength of the dollar, I’m concerned about the rest of the world. Our economy is strong as hell. The internal inflation is worldwide, it’s worse off everywhere else than it is in the United States. So the problem is a lack of economic growth and sound policy in other countries, not so much ours.” He then walked away without finishing his sentence, leaving the reporter hanging.

During the interview, Seacrest asked President Biden what he had been eating lately. The President responded, “I’ve been eating everything that’s put in front of me! I’ve eaten pasta, which I love. Eaten a lot of chicken, chicken parmesan…” However, it was First Lady Jill Biden who had to remind him by saying, “And ice cream!” This small moment of forgetfulness caught the attention of viewers and sparked a conversation on social media.
President Biden’s love for ice cream has been widely known. In fact, he has often been seen indulging in his favorite sweet treat throughout his political career. It has become almost a trademark for him, with various ice cream flavors even being named after him. Therefore, it was surprising to see him momentarily forget about something that he is known for.
However, it is important to remember that everyone can have forgetful moments, even the President of the United States. When taking into account the demanding nature of the job and the constant pressure that comes with it, it is understandable that President Biden might occasionally forget something as trivial as his favorite dessert during a live interview.
This incident does not diminish President Biden’s capabilities or qualities as a leader. It is crucial to separate personal moments from professional performance. President Biden has shown his dedication and commitment to serving the American people, and this forgetful moment on New Year’s Eve should not overshadow the significant achievements he has made during his presidency.
Additionally, it is worth noting that this incident humanizes President Biden. It reminds us that he is not a flawless figure, but rather a relatable individual who can have moments of forgetfulness like anyone else. This relatability can help foster a stronger connection between the President and the American people, as it shows that he is just like them in many ways.
In conclusion, President Joe Biden’s forgetful moment on New Year’s Eve, where he momentarily forgot about his favorite ice cream, should be seen as a minor incident that does not define his presidency. It is crucial to remember that everyone can have forgetful moments, and being President does not exempt one from that. It humanizes President Biden and can potentially strengthen his connection with the American people. Let us focus on the significant achievements he has made and continue to support his efforts in leading the nation forward.
