Abraham Lincoln was a corned beef connoisseur and historians suggest his taste for it fueled the delicious dishes associated with St. Patrick's Day in the United States.

"Mr. Lincoln enjoyed oysters, venison, corned beef and cabbage, and the Midwestern foods, including beef, pork, chicken, potatoes and corn," the National Park Service writes in a profile of domestic life at Abraham and Mary Lincoln's family home in Springfield, Illinois.
