Fight against fast food?
Kennedy shown eating a burger with Trump
On Saturday, a photo of US politician Robert F. Kennedy appeared on X showing him eating a burger. He is eating fries and drinking a Coke. The picture caused a stir because Kennedy announced that he wanted to take action against fast food ....
In the picture, the politician, who is set to become health minister, can be seen at a table with US President-elect Donald Trump (2nd from left) and tech billionaire Elon Musk (left). In front of them are trays of chips, burgers, various sauces and sodas such as Coke. They smile at the camera, while a companion holds up his fries. The picture was posted by US health scientist Eric Feigl-Ding - a member of the Democratic Party.
In the accompanying text, Feigl-Ding reminded us that cola contains a lot of sugar and that burgers are highly processed foods. The picture, which was published on Saturday, was probably taken on an airplane.
You can see the photo on Platform X here.
"Conflict of interest"
Many people took the Democrat's side under the post, writing of a "conflict of interest", a "new cholesterol diet plan for everyone" and a previous outcry. The background: Kennedy had announced that he wanted to combat obesity in the USA. In future, there would therefore be no more vouchers for sugary soft drinks or highly processed foods. In general, "the epidemic of chronic diseases in the USA" should be stopped.
His campaign may have something to do with his conspiracy theories. For example, Kennedy had claimed in the past that chemicals in the environment were turning children into transgender people. So is this an urgent reason to take action against highly processed food? "Make America Healthy Again", proclaimed the 70-year-old, echoing Trump's slogan "Make America Great Again". Incidentally, the US President-elect says he loves fast food.
However, one user on X points out that eating burgers and fries doesn't necessarily mean you have to eat unhealthily.
