Secretary of State Marco Rubio reacted to HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy’s “crazy” diet.
While it’s undeniable that a healthy diet is much better than one full of fast food, junk and processed ingredients, some people’s diets are arguably on the extreme side. Rubio joked about Kennedy’s eating habits in a recent interview for the Katie Miller Podcast.

“Have you adopted RFK’s diet of red meat and fermented vegetables?” the host, Katie Miller, asked.
“No! This is a crazy diet. This is a diet that consists of eating sauerkraut and meat. Now you understand, like this is not a sustainable thing. He has to travel with coolers of sauerkraut!” the secretary exclaimed.
“But he does it,” she pointed out.
“I’m not going to travel the world with a cooler full of sauerkraut. It’s ridiculous. I can’t do it! It’s not sustainable for me,” Rubio denied.
“Are you MAHA?” Miller pressed.
“I’m in favor of MAHA. Like, I think people should be healthy,” Rubio replied diplomatically, before his wife cut in.
“No, he’s not,” she said.
“What’s he eat?” Miller asked.
“Pop-Tarts!” Jeanette Rubio revealed.
“No, I don’t eat Pop-Tarts every day,” her husband argued.
“Okay, you eat sweets-” she said before Rubio tried to defend himself.
“The Pop-Tart is one of the great American innovations in the history of the world!”

The thing I like most about the Presidents cabinet is… although they take their responsibilities very seriously, they get along with each other with a sense of humor. Those are signs of great team building.

Reagan had jelly beans. Rubio has pop tarts.

He’s Gen-X. Of course he eats pop-tarts. WE WERE RAISED ON POP-TARTS. I couldn’t love this guy any more.
