One Gram of Uranium Contains 20 Million Calories: Trump’s Plan to Feed the Poor

In a bright move to completely eliminate American hunger "overnight, and maybe even make it glow a little bit," President Donald Trump announced his newest economic and dietary policy to aid his Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement, heavily influenced by U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: The Uranium-235 Big Beautiful Nutritional Initiative.

Trump’s appointment of RFK Jr. has generated many innovative ideas for the administration. However, dietitians nationwide agree that the best of these ideas was reallocating much of the funding from the SNAP benefit program to uranium mining. Trump was initially against the idea, but after putting what he considered “tremendous thought” to the matter, decided that providing even more calorie-dense foods to destitute citizens could perhaps help grow membership of his dad bod peer group. “The last meeting was just Elon and me, before our relationship took a hiatus last year. I think it’d be an incredible idea to revive it, since so many people complain about feeling marginalized under my rule."

Calorie-dense foods are among the most affordable and serve as a default for people living in poverty; thus, obesity rates are almost 5% higher for those earning under $20,000 compared to those earning over $100,000. With significantly less access to dietary financial support being provided to poverty-stricken Americans under the Trump administration, recent complaints and riots related to these "Christmas Carol”-esque conditions have pushed the current, “guns over butter” U.S. government to action.

While the administration’s economic advisors claim the plan will save trillions in grocery bills—potentially eliminating the U.S.’s national debt in a few years, according to a recent post from President Trump on Truth Social—health officials have raised a few hesitant objections. "I feel it is important to clarify that while uranium is technically high in energy, it is entirely indigestible, highly toxic, and will cause acute radiation sickness resulting in immediate death," warned Dr. Anthony Fauci, speaking from an undisclosed bunker. "Caloric density does not equal nutritional value."

Trump quickly dismissed the criticisms as a hoax by Big Agriculture and the Radical Left. "They want you to keep buying lettuce. Lettuce has zero calories. It’s water pretending to be solid. Water’s a liquid. Lettuce is a fake vegetable. You know it, and I know it," he countered during a follow-up interview with Fox News. "They say it’s radioactive. I say it’s self-heating. Think of the EUHHHHH savings on microwaves! You eat it, you’re warm all winter. And the glow? We’ve got ourselves some big, beautiful people right there. You won't even need to turn on the lights at night. We're saving the electric grid, folks."

Wall Street has reluctantly accepted this new chapter. While grocery store stocks tumbled by 80% following Trump’s grand announcement, a week later, McDonald’s stocks jumped by 32% when they announced their new “Mega-MAGA-McFlurry”, which is sprinkled with just a tablespoon of uranium, but claims to fulfill a human’s caloric needs for the next 18,000 years.

The public education system will also make gains from the Uranium-235 Big Beautiful Nutritional Initiative. Public school cafeterias will replace heavily regulated vegetable requirements with a single, highly dense, lukewarm metallic cube placed in the center of the cafeteria. Students can simply lick it on their way to algebra. “With these savings on food, we can provide billions and billions of free lunches for all students, even in college,” Trump claimed while dramatically waving his accordion hands. “We can use these savings to implement Bible study classes in every school across the country, from Maine to that Japanese island with Pearl Harbor.”

When asked how the administration plans to deal with the minor side effects—such as organ failure, hair loss, and spontaneous combustion—RFK Jr. noted that these are simply "signs that the high-energy lifestyle is working."
