What were the favourite foods of the leaders of the Second World War? We look at the fuel that kept the leaders of history's biggest conflict going. America's leader ran on bread pudding and grilled cheese sandwiches. Winston Churchill didn't like marmalade but enjoyed pineapple with his parrot and Sole Champeaux! Charles DeGaulle liked a little champagne with his mimolette. Australia's leader, Jack Curtin, loved a nice shepherd's pie and New Zealand's Peter Fraser seems to run on a lot of hot buttered toast and tea! Canada's leader was William Lyon Mackenzie King... when he wasn't conversing with his dead dog he liked to, we're not sure all we know is one of his fave foods was fruit cake. Enough said.
