WATCH: Obama Eats Salmon Half-Eaten By A Bear In Alaska

President Obama ate salmon that had already been partially eaten by a bear while filming an episode of “Running Wild with Bear Grylls” during his recent Alaska trip.

In a short preview of the episode aired on NBC’s “Today” on Tuesday morning, Obama did not seem too dismayed that Grylls had chosen salmon for their meal.

“Bear’s a mediocre cook, but the fact that we ate something recognizable was encouraging,” Obama said, adding that he would have liked “a cracker to go with it.”

  2. They cooked it ?? Why not eat it raw? does “sushi” ring a bell ?
