Local goetta maker Daniel Glier took some of his German breakfast meat to the White House to give to President Bush today, and the president promptly asked him, “What’s goetta?” According to The Enquirer, Glier was invited to thank Bush for investment incentives in the economic stimulus package that allowed Glier’s Meats of Covington to purchase a machine that puts metal fasteners on the ends of its goetta tubes. Glier was going to try to get GW to try the pork/beef/whole grain delicacy, but security officials confiscated the goetta for security reasons after numerous people had tricked the president into eating gross stuff during his recent trip to the Middle East.
