Ted Cruz Says Beto O’Rourke Will Ban Barbecue in Texas | Eater
"During a weekend campaign event held at a restaurant in Columbus (about 90 miles southeast of Austin), Senator Ted Cruz claimed—without evidence—that electing a Democrat would result in a statewide ban on barbecue, presenting the remark as part of a broader, food-focused attack on his opponent, Beto O’Rourke. The allegation drew online ridicule and was noted alongside other campaign food moments (such as PETA handing out barbecued tofu), but O’Rourke had not publicly responded; the claim has been widely characterized as baseless." - Whitney Filloon
