The ultimate expression of ineptitude, supplanting "out to lunch." Derived from the king of all dipshits, George W. Bush - when asked what he was doing when he learned that President Obama finally cleaned up his mess and took out Bin Laden, he responded "eating soufflé."

Further, not in touch with the real world, crazy; also, inattentive. This expression transfers a temporary physical absence for the purpose of eating soufflé to a temporary or permanent mental absence. In George W. Bush's case, it's the permanent kind.
Don't bother, this dumbfuck is eating soufflé.
