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.

    This man is insane:

    In an interview with Rosanne Barr, he seemingly without emotion said,

    “So I pulled over and I picked up the bear and put him in the back of my van, because I was gonna skin the bear,”

    “It was in very good condition and I was gonna put the meat in my refrigerator.”

    “I had to go to the airport, and the bear was in my car, and I didn’t want to leave the bear in the car because that would have been bad,”

    “the little bit of the redneck in me” thought I have a bear carcus and a bike I need to get rid of, why not put both “in the bike lanes.”

    “I wasn’t drinking, of course, but people were drinking with me who thought this was a good idea,”

    “So we went and did that and we thought it would be amusing for whoever found it, or something.”

      “I wasn’t drinking, of course, but people were drinking with me who thought this was a good idea,”

      Riiiiight. The excuse of college kids caught in an embarrassing scenario, that’s totally legit reasoning.
