US President Barack Obama's wife, Michelle Obama recently swore to take a break from 'French fries.'

During White House's annual Kids State Dinner Friday, the first lady vowed the fast food away from her diet, the Washington Times reported.

Hearing the disclosure, a surprised President Obama asked his wife if she sure, and hearing her firm "yes" as a response said "that's big."

The US President also admitted to the audience in the State Dining Room "a bowl of good chips and guacamole" to be his weakness, and advised that as long as there was regular intake of healthy food, fun food should not be a problem.

The annual event, which brings 54 children and their parents from around the country to the White House, informs them about healthy eating.
