Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s staff cut off a USA Today interview question about the grossest food he has ever eaten, moments after he admitted eating “stuff I find on the street.”
“…I will literally eat anything… I don’t have a gag reflex,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Chambers. “When I travel, I’ll eat, you know, even stuff I find on the street, you know, street vendors, cooking.”
“Like, is there stuff that you’ve eaten that people are like, wow. You ate that,” Chambers asked.
“You mean, like, something gross? Or?” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. replied.
“Yes. Maybe gross for others. Yeah. Not for you,” Chambers said.
“I’m getting a signal not to answer that question,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said, shutting down the line of questioning.
Rfk Jr is insane but the title is waaaay out of context.
“you know, street vendors, cooking.”
He’ll eat from a food truck!
He was stopped by his staff before answering whether he’d eaten food found in trash cans. Kennedy has snorted cocaine from toilet seats so trash cans are a more sanitary option.
he also likes to play with dead racoon penis as well. anything is possible with this guy.
As a 30 year veteran of food trucks, that is not a man you should be taking health advice from!
Maybe, but most people don’t have a gag reflex when eating food from street vendors.
He’s saying people would normally gag on the stuff he’s eaten.
I’ve had stinky tofu from a street vendor, which is both a fairly normal food and absolutely something that might cause a person to gag.
(As for the grossest thing I’ve eaten: one time, I found that beetles had infested my stash of buckwheat, so rather than letting them have it, I cooked it and skimmed them off when they floated to the top. I wouldn’t do that again because I’m a vegetarian now…)
Ok sure stinky tofu, durian. I don’t think rfk is talking about that.
Where from? If it’s not Hunan (specifically Changsha) stinky tofu, it’s not worth my time.
Sorry to disappoint you, but I was in Taiwan. It did smell so bad while the vendor was still out of sight that I thought my friend was pranking me by leading me to an open sewer or something.
Oh yeah, it still smells terrible but for some reason the Changsha variety (it’s kind of fried and black) is delicious. They add some broth and chopped garlic and chili peppers on top.
The one I had was actually pretty tasty, but it tasted like ordinary (but well made) fried tofu. I suppose I should be grateful that it didn’t taste the way it smelled, but I admit I was a little disappointed.
