President William Howard Taft (seen here in The Philippines) was undoubtably one of the most spectacular eaters to ever live in the White House. At 335 pounds, he was also the largest. Though he lamented his weight (and even kept a food journal in an attempt to slim down), he never outran his lust for the delicious. Rumor has it that once, in desperate need of a midnight snack, he had a diner car attached to his train in the middle of the night.
