Naturally, we all get a little hungry. Today, President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden had an apparent craving for burgers and fries, meeting for lunch at Shake Shack in Washington's Dupont Circle neighborhood with four construction workers who are working on a $9.1 million infrastructure project in the city. This comes just after Obama highlighted infrastructure investment during his visit to New York on Wednesday.

POTUS ordered a burger and fries and VPOTUS ordered a cheeseburger, French fries and a black-and-white milkshake.
Joe Biden's food order totaled at least 1640 calories. http://t.co/pmqASelhIS— Zeke Miller (@ZekeJMiller) May 16, 2014
