That’s probably some Secret Service thing, because the threat of poisoning is actually real. In America, the Secret Service goes to great lengths to vet potential restaurant stops wherever the POTUS/VP is going to be. But they don’t exactly have jurisdiction to do that when they’re in another country.
Notably, Trump’s love of fast food has made the Secret Service’s job extremely frustrating… He apparently has a tendency to just spontaneously demand a drive-thru stop, giving the Secret Service no time to actually run security checks on the staff ahead of time.

Because he thinks someone will try to poison him. The Stalinist paranoia has set in.

Is it really paranoia if its a very credible realistic fear?

Like father, like son. Part of why Trump eats so shitty is the same fear.
