With its elderly crazy people and crappy cafeterias, everything about the U.S. Senate says "rest home." But America's ancient legislators may soon get some better food, at least.

Diane Feinstein calls "noticeably subpar" cuisine that sends most staffers running to the privately operated House cafeterias at lunchtime. [ Washington Post ]
