Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. stated he does not have a gag reflex, proclaiming he will “literally eat anything” in an interview with USA Today on Tuesday.

“I will eat anything, and I love experimenting with foods,” he said, noting that he’ll eat “even stuff I find on the street, you know, street vendors cooking.”

Kennedy noted that his own diet largely consists of “meat and fermented foods,” and stated that he enjoys “a bite of the meat… a bite of the sauerkraut.”

“That is kind of the prescribed perfect way of eating it. You know, I don't do that perfectly every time, but I try,” he said.

During the interview, Kennedy also shared he felt “a lot of pressure” as he’s been assisting members of Trump’s cabinet on their own weight loss journeys through his beef and sauerkraut diet.

Kennedy launches new 'The Real Food Show' to promote healthy eating

The interview was intended to promote Kennedy’s new YouTube cooking program, The Real Food Show, which will “make healthy, affordable cooking simple and accessible for every American,” according to the show’s official website.

The show aims to teach viewers how to cook food according to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans as part of US President Donald Trump's Make America Healthy Again plan.

The first episode, featuring Chef Andrew Gruel, teaches viewers how to prepare salmon cakes with apple, white beans and greens salad using “simple, everyday ingredients that fit almost any budget.”
