Yes. The presidents has to pay from his salary for the food he and his family eat

Presidents receive a monthly bill for meal service from the White House steward.

(Nancy Reagan was astounded when she received her first bill. "What is this?" she thought. ) Turns out they'd always done it that way.

State dinners are paid for by the government from a separate fund.

Where does Barack Obama get money to pay for food he eats?

All presidents receive an annual salary, courtesy of the taxpayers. Currently, it is $400,000 a year, which is what President Obama makes (so did President Bush). All presidents also receive an expense account for travel, entertainment, and eating out when they are performing their presidential duties. The president's meals at the White House are part of being president-- all presidents have to eat, and Mr. Obama is no exception. Many presidents have even hired an official White House chef, so they could have meals they personally enjoyed. Currently, the White House chef is Cristeta Comerford.

Where is the White House that President Barack Obama lives?

Yes and no. Presidents are allowed to live there for free; but that is the extent of what they don't have to pay for. Presidents are given a salary (currently $400,000 a year), plus a budget for expenses related to doing their job. But unrelated expenses, as well as the cost of food, parties, salaries of their staff, and bringing friends with them on vacation, are all part of what the president and the first lady are expected to pay for themselves.
