When the presidents of the United States step in order to live in The White House, their power is greater than you ever thought. But when it gets to the property and what’s allowed inside and what’s not, they tend to be very picky.
Take a look at what’s been banned throughout the years in The White House. Some of them remained, others have been modified while there are some that have even been canceled.
#1
Broccoli
George Bush disliked broccoli. He banned the usage of broccoli in the entire building. He remembered his mother forcing him to eat it, therefore started hating it.
#2
Squirrels
In 1955 Dwight D. Eisenhower set up a lawn that had been attacked by squirrels in no time. After seeing this disaster he ordered for them to be shot whenever seen there. Sad but true.

Balloons
When in 2017 they announced that The White House was open for visits, they firstly made some restrictions. Among the other things, fireworks have been forbidden, just like knife and balloons. The reason remained unknown.
That’s more efficacious than my daughter’s attitude toward carrots
I don’t get it! That’s so strange for me, as I enjoy eating everything 😀
Oh wow! I love broccoli, plus it is a great antioxidant
Utterly amusing, how one individual can change an entire institution!
