RFK Jr. Says He'll 'Literally Eat Anything,' Then Gets a Signal to Stop

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. responded to questions about unusual foods with a candid, off-the-cuff admission while promoting his cooking show. Asked about what he would try, he laughed and said, “I will literally eat anything,” adding he has “no gag reflex” and enjoys testing foods many people avoid. He described himself as someone who experiments with local dishes while traveling and may buy food from “street vendors.” The exchange abruptly ended when USA Today’s Swapna Venugopal Ramaswamy asked what others might consider disgusting; Kennedy smiled, glanced off-camera, and said he was getting a “signal not to answer.” The discussion contrasted with his nutrition-focused public message, including updated federal guidance and criticism of added sugar and heavily processed foods.
