John Kerry Heinz Hates Tomato-Based Products

From Page Six of the New York Post:

KERRY’S ROOM SERVICE

Kerry requires Poland Spring water, down pillows for his hotel bed, and the ability to order movies on-demand, according to Web site The Smoking Gun. "JK (for the time being) will not be eating spicy food or anything containing tomato, citrus or chocolate," reads a 2004 campaign memo obtained by the site.

Another section warns, "NEVER order: Tomato-based products OR sandwiches." For dinner, Kerry favors meatloaf with mashed potatoes, roasted chicken, and Szechuan string beans – although he also likes filet mignon, cooked medium.

Kerry’s wife, ketchup heiress Teresa Heinz Kerry, wants a "heavenly bed" in a Starwood hotel suite, "good air circulation (no blowing heat)," and a fruit mix. For dinner, Heinz Kerry "loves stone crabs" but "NO TUNA, HALIBUT, OR SWORDFISH."
