I don't think so.

The White House kitchen is under some of the strictest security anywhere. Besides it is much easier and more accurate to run a test by mechanical means then to have a food taster.

Infowars.

I need an actual source for this.

Guess you missed this line of the article:
Doctors and staff reportedly found the byproduct of a type of toxin that’s very hard to detect and has a time-delayed onset of symptoms.

Uh, I seriously doubt it’s “much easier and more accurate”.

What’s easier than just someone eating something within an hour of you? Just how many tests can be performed on various food and what do they have to do to it in the process? How long does it take (hours I’m sure) to do these tests including chemical/bio checks, especially if you don’t know just what you’re looking for?

Sounds astronomically expensive to me, if nothing else.

The security I have read about is there is a unit which goes out to purchase food for the President and supplies the White House kitchens, and it is clandestine. No one knows who they are or where they go to make the purchases. It’s always different. So the team may have had a security breach.
