McCarthy gave Trump a jar of his favorite Starburst flavors as a gift: report

House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R) had an aide pick out the pink and red Starbursts to give to President Trump as a gift after noticing that Trump only ate those flavors, The Washington Post reported Monday.

McCarthy and Trump were on Air Force One in October when McCarthy noticed that Trump was only eating the cherry and strawberry Starburst pieces.

A few days later, McCarthy bought some Starbursts and instructed an aide to sort through them and put only the pink and red ones in a jar.

The No. 2 Republican in the House then had the jar — featuring his name on the side — delivered to a smiling Trump, a White House official told The Post.

Trump’s Starbursts preferences are the latest revelation of his less-than-healthy food choices. The president’s love of fast food, particularly McDonald’s, has been well-documented.

And a new book on the Trump campaign by former staffers also outlined Trump’s dietary preferences.

“On Trump Force One there were four major food groups: McDonald’s, Kentucky Fried Chicken, pizza and Diet Coke,” the authors write in the book, according to The Post.

Trump said during a taping of the “Dr. Oz” show in 2016 that he enjoys fast food because “at least you know what they are putting in it.”
