Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is offering his two cents on the high cost of beef and what people can do to get around it.
The Health and Human Services Secretary spoke at a “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA) event on Friday (February 27) and proposed that consumers should look for more “cheap cuts of meat,” specifically naming liver and “cheaper cuts of steak.”

“If you buy, you know, a porterhouse steak, it’s going to, it is going to take you back. You can buy liver or the cheaper cuts of steak that are very, very affordable,” Kennedy added.
According to The Hill, the cost of red meat has gone up quite a bit over the past year, with the average cost of a pound of ground beef going from $5.54 to $6.75 between January 2025 to January 2026, “the highest cost on record, despite a statement by President Trump in his State of the Union address that the price of beef is falling.”
A recent shirtless workout video featuring Kennedy and Kid Rock ignited strong reactions online.
