‘We had to establish like a really firm rule about no pie during the week’

Obama cracks wise about 'crack' in pies (USA Today)

It's not every day you hear a president joke about crack cocaine -- in White House pies, no less.

During a Monday event to celebrate LGBT Pride Month, President Obama praised retiring White House pastry chef Bill Yosses -- "the Crustmaster" -- for his delicious pies.

"I don't know what he does -- whether he puts crack in them, or ...," Obama said as the crowd chuckled.

First lady Michelle Obama quickly weighed in, saying, "no he doesn't ... There is no crack in our pies."
