"I've been eating everything that's put in front of me!" Biden replied. "I've eaten pasta, which I love. Eaten a lot of chicken, chicken parmesan, I've been eating all Italian foods basically —"

"And ice cream," Jill Biden reminded the President.

"And ice cream," the president repeated, then added, "Chocolate chip ice cream."

"My hope is that everybody has a healthy, happy and safe new year," Biden went to add during the interview. "But beyond that I hope they understand that we're in a better position than any country in the world to lead the world."
