Tim Walz Caught In Yet ANOTHER Ridiculous Lie
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has a history of stretching the truth on important matters like his military record and handling of his state’s Black Lives Matter protests. But the latest absurd claims about his dietary preferences are beginning to make a mockery of it.
On Thursday the vice presidential nominee released a social media video where he tells Vice President Kamala Harris about his penchant for “white guy tacos,” a term he uses to describe a dish free of hot spices. “What does that mean, like mayonnaise and tuna?” Harris asks him. “Pretty much ground beef and cheese,” he replied. Asked if he uses any flavor at all, Walz lamely replies, “Uh, no… Black pepper is the top of the spice level in Minnesota.” The two go on to talk about “food knowledge” and Harris’s love of growing peppers at the White House, a video they ostensibly meant to humanize both of them to younger voters.

WATCH:
In true fashion, the internet quickly discovered that Gov. Walz has touted his ability for making spicy dishes in the past. Just two and a half years ago, the midwestern Democrat proudly posted a photo of his trophy for an “award-winning recipe for Turkey Taco Tot Hotdish.” Human Events Senior Editor Jack Posobiec was the first to call out the fibbing. “This you?” he replied to Walz shortly after the release of his video with Harris.

Newsmax host Todd Starnes took it further, explaining the story behind Walz’s culinary dishonesty. “But when Walz was a congressman he won a culinary contest. His recipe was ‘Tim’s Turkey Taco Tot Hotdish.’ The recipe included green chilies and chili powder,” Starnes wrote on X. “So, he not only lies about his military service, the governor also lies about his digestive system. And, what’s up with all the anti-white racism?”
Walz tells Kamala he eats "white guy tacos" because Minnesotans can't handle spice level above "black pepper."

Starnes must have touched a nerve with his followers because others chimed in about Walz’s denigration of white taste buds and the stereotype that his fellow white midwesterners can’t handle the heat. “They think white racism will get them more votes, and it probably will from leftists,” one X user wrote. Wendy Maldonado cited her white upbringing in the South. “He would die in my WHITE/hispanic/mexican! I grew up in south Texas make no mistake about it we eat HOT STUFF! ” Others brought the completely unnecessary fib back to allegations that he misrepresented his military service to win a seat in Congress in 2005. “You definitely like to spice up your military history,” one person wrote in response to Walz’s post.

In the end, the video may simply be another reminder that voters are tired of politicians pandering during the election season. “You both try so hard to appear normal but it just doesn’t work,” one follower of Walz replied. “Incredibly normal conversation, not forced at all,” added another.
