RFK Jr. Rages at Erin Burnett After CNN Pokes Holes in His Meal Math

  • On Thursday, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. criticized CNN anchor Erin Burnett after 'Erin Burnett OutFront' aired a report testing the affordability of his cooking show's recipes.
  • Journalist Tom Foreman tested Kennedy's salmon cake recipe on Wednesday, finding that purchasing ingredients at a local store cost more than three times his claimed $19.64 price point.
  • The cost difference arises because Kennedy's 'standard recipe costing' prorates ingredients, while Foreman noted grocery stores require consumers to buy full packages, such as mayonnaise costing more than $11.
  • Defending his methodology, Kennedy argued that 'the rest' of ingredients 'stays in the kitchen,' comparing the pricing to a restaurant charging for a whole ketchup bottle if a customer uses only a squirt.
  • In his response, Kennedy accused Burnett of having 'Trump Derangement Syndrome,' claiming it left her having 'abandoned both common sense and basic arithmetic' while evaluating meals from 'The Real Food Show.
