They shared the same name, Dirt Candy, and a devotion to healthy food. But a trademark dispute turned into an urban-rural standoff.

Tuna sold in 26 states and in Washington, D.C., was recalled over concerns that it may have been contaminated. The stores affected include Trader Joe’s, Genova, Van Camp’s and H-E-B.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday ending the "procurement and forced use of paper straws."

The order directs the federal government to stop purchasing paper straws and ensure they are no longer offered in federal buildings, according to a White House fact sheet.

It also requires the development of a "National Strategy" to end the use of paper straws within 45 days and "alleviate the forced use of paper straws nationwide."

'BACK TO PLASTIC!': TRUMP VOWS EXECUTIVE ORDER ENDING 'RIDICULOUS' PUSH FOR PAPER STRAWS

The White House said paper straws are more expensive than plastic straws and use chemicals that may carry risks to human health.

"The irrational campaign against plastic straws has forced Americans to use nonfunctional paper straws," the fact sheet reads, adding: "This ends under President Trump."

The order comes after Trump vowed last week to end bans and restrictions on plastic straws.

"I will be signing an Executive Order next week ending the ridiculous Biden push for Paper Straws, which don't work," Trump said Friday on Truth Social. "BACK TO PLASTIC!"

Several Democrat-run states, including California, Colorado, New York, Maine, Oregon, Vermont, Rhode Island and Washington, have bans or restrictions on single-use plastic straws.

Some of those states currently have laws limiting the use of single-use plastic straws in full-service restaurants unless requested by the customer.

FEDERAL AGENCIES SCRUB CLIMATE CHANGE FROM WEBSITES AMID TRUMP REBRANDING

Democrat-led states have also adopted the use of paper straws as a more environment-friendly alternative, which Trump has criticized for years. He said in a 2019 social media post that "liberal paper straws don't work."

This comes after former President Joe Biden's administration announced plans in July to phase out single-use plastic in the federal government.

As the Make America Healthy Again movement gains traction nationally, many parents and grandparents may be reminded to keep an eye on the kinds of candy their children and grandchildren may receive this Valentine's Day.

To avoid potentially harmful dyes and chemicals in some candies and baked treats, certified holistic nutritionist Robin DeCicco, whose business is in New York, and registered dietitian nutritionist Ilana Muhlstein of Los Angeles offered a few MAHA-minded swaps.

Here are four alternatives for a healthier Valentine's Day this year for all family members.

MAKE AMERICA HEALTHY AGAIN: WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT THE MOVEMENT

Instead of choosing chocolate candies that are "loaded with sugar," artificial food dyes and preservatives, DeCicco recommended trying organic YumEarth ChocoYums candies, which are free of artificial food dyes and high-fructose corn syrup.

She said Rawmio Organic Keto Dark Chocolate Hearts are made with raw cacao nibs.

"This chocolate is the real deal," she said. "There isn't even any butter or milk added – so this is also dairy free."

'GOD-INTENDED FOODS' ARE KEY TO A HEALTHIER AMERICA, EXPERT SAYS

Muhlstein recommended a variety of Hu dark chocolate bars, which are vegan, gluten-free and made with organic cacao.

Some colorful candies include a variety of potentially harmful colors, including red dye 40 and yellow and blue food coloring.

DeCicco suggested YumEarth Giggles as a hard chewy candy option, which uses organic fruit and vegetable concentrates for coloring.

The East Coast-based nutritionist recommended Black Forest Organic Gummy Bears, made with natural fruit and vegetable juice, as a swap for gummy or fruit snacks.

Muhlstein also listed a few healthier options for chewy and gummy sweets, including low-sugar Numa Taffy Candy, Pure Organic Fruit Bars, YumEarth Organic Chewys and BEAR Real Fruit Snack Rolls.

For a bubble gum alternative, Muhlstein recommended Tree Hugger tooth-friendly gum with added xylitol for oral health.

While pink and red-colored cupcakes, brownies and other baked treats are festive and delicious, DeCicco said some red velvet cake mixes include preservatives to extend shelf life, as well as red dye.

The nutritionist instead suggested Go Nana's Red Velvet Banana Bread/Cupcake Mix, including beet root powder for red coloring and no preservatives.

Muhlstein told Fox News Digital that any cake mix and frosting can be turned pink or red by mixing in natural ingredients like freeze-dried strawberries, pomegranate juice or mashed-up raspberries.

DeCicco also offered a healthy Valentine's Day recipe for brownies. (See the video at the top of this article.)

Single-ingredient foods like fruits are always a good choice, said Muhlstein.

To make things a bit more festive for Valentine's Day, she suggested the idea of using a heart-shaped fruit cutter to slice strawberries, apples, bananas or other fruits of choice.

Heart-shaped cookie cutters can also be used to shape other food options, such as peanut butter and jelly sandwiches made with all-natural peanut butter and no added sugars.

Some brands are also focused on single-ingredient snacking, such as The Daily Good – recommended by Muhlstein – which makes soft-dried dragon fruit slices of 100% dragon fruit.

The Food and Drug Administration has classified a recall of 60 different doughnut products to its second-highest level, the agency announced earlier this week in an update to its website. 

The recall was first announced on Jan. 7, but it was classified by the FDA as a "Class II recall" on Feb. 5. 

The recalled products were produced by FGF Brands, and were sold at grocery stores throughout the United States and Canada, said the FDA's report on the recall. The total recall amounts to more than 2 million cases of doughnuts, fritters, paczki, eclairs and munchkins. 

FDA RECALLS BREADCRUMBS SOLD NATIONWIDE

The products were all produced prior to Dec. 13, 2024, and are "within expiration," says the FDA enforcement report. 

Listeria monocytogenes, the bacteria which may have contaminated the doughnuts, can cause listeriosis if consumed, said the website for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. 

"An estimated 1,600 people get listeriosis each year, and about 260 die," said the CDC.

Those at the highest risk from listeria are "pregnant women and their newborns, adults aged 65 or older, and people with weakened immune systems," said the agency. Other groups "rarely become seriously ill" when exposed to listeria, noted the CDC.

Unborn infants are at particular risk from listeria, said the CDC. 

"Infection during pregnancy results in fetal loss in about 20% of cases and newborn death in about 3% of cases," the agency said. 

A 2024 outbreak of listeria connected to a deli meat processing plant killed nine people and resulted in dozens of hospitalizations, FOX Business previously reported. 

A Class II recall is the second-highest classification of the FDA's recalls, says its website.

These are issued when there is "a situation in which use of, or exposure to, a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote," says the FDA's website.

This is in contrast to a "Class I" recall, the highest level. 

A Class I recall is for "a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of, or exposure to, a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death," according to the FDA.

Eight years after pivoting on advertisement strategies, fast food chain Carl's Jr. is bringing back its iconic bikini model advertisements for the upcoming Super Bowl.

This year's ad features TikTok influencer Alix Earle in a campaign for the chain's new "Hangover Burger." Earle, 24, is presently in a relationship with Miami Dolphins player Braxton Berrios.

Speaking to Fox News Digital, Earle said making the commercial was "a lot of fun" and that it was shot in Hollywood.

"Just like seeing a set like that, it was like Wistera Lane, which is kind of an iconic set," she said, referring to the fictional location of the show Desperate Housewives. 

"Just being there in general was like, mind-blowing for me," she said. 

Earle told Fox News Digital she believes her commercial is a "modern twist" on some of the chain's past work, which featured Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, Kate Upton, and Heidi Klum. 

"I think Carl's Jr. is a great brand, and they have great burgers – especially the Hangover Burger – and they've done so many fun, iconic commercials with iconic girls in the past, so it was really fun to be a part of that and kind of do it in a new way."

The ad depicts a bikini-top clad Earle walking through a neighborhood filled with the remnants of a party.

"Let's be real. Everyone's going to be a hot mess after the big game," said Earle, who is originally from New Jersey. 

"Been there. Done that," said Earle. "And I've got just what you need to cure that post-party bug: the Carl's Jr. Hangover Burger," she said. 

The burger contains "egg, double bacon – yeah, you need that double bacon – charbroiled beef, hash browns, cheese, and sauce," said Earle, adding "just the way I like it." 

As part of a promotion, Carl's Jr. will be giving away free "Hangover Burgers" the day after the Super Bowl for all users of its app who belong to the chain's rewards program. 

Executives from Carl's Jr. praised Earle as someone who lives an "unapologetic, bold style – much like the Carl's Jr. brand."

"Alix shares not just the highlights of life, but also the moments that are a hot mess, like the day after the big game. We wanted a partner who embraces all aspects of life, and Alix was a natural fit," said Kara Gasbarro, vice president of creative at CKE Restaurants, in a statement released by Carl's Jr.

"Her fans and followers know she loves late-night burger runs and any cure for a fun night out, making this partnership a perfect match. We're excited about this uniquely delicious burger and the way Alix helps us bring this campaign to life," said Gasbarro. 

On YouTube, many seemed to have enjoyed Carl's Jr.'s new advertisement.

"We’re soooo back! God bless you, Carl!" wrote one YouTube user.

Others praised the return to the chain's old style of advertising. 

"A commercial with a hot girl talking about hangovers and burgers! It feels like the 90s again! The world is healing!!!" said one user.

"This is such a throwback to the old Carl's Jr ads! I would love to see more commercials like this in the future!" said another.

In 2017, Carl's Jr. announced that they would no longer feature scantily clad models in its advertisements, instead focusing on food quality and an all-American image, Fox News Digital previously reported. 

A cache pit dating back about 1,000 years was discovered in Alaska last year, military officials recently revealed — providing a glimpse into the food storage methods of the past.

Archaeologists from Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson (JBER), Northern Land Use Research Alaska and area tribal councils uncovered the birchbark-lined cache pit along Upper Cook Inlet in June, according to a Dec. 6 news release from the Alaska military complex where the discovery was made.

Cache pits are like root cellars. They were used to preserve fish, meat and berries, archaeologist Elizabeth Ortiz said. 

WHY FOOD SAFETY EXPERTS STAND BEHIND THE 'WHEN IN DOUBT, THROW IT OUT' STRATEGY

"The caches were dug into well-drained soils and lined with birchbark and layers of grasses to preserve food and are rarely discovered intact," Ortiz said, according to the news release.

Initial radiocarbon dating revealed that the food storage pit was used about 1,000 years ago.

The pit was found along a trail well-known to have been used by the region's indigenous Dene people. 

It measured about 3½ deep, researchers said. 

FOOD ITEM IN VIRGINIA WOMAN'S FREEZER WAS 84 YEARS OLD, STUNS FAMILY: 'QUITE PERPLEXING'

Dene, or Athabascan, is a language group stretching from the Alaska interior through Canada and into the American Southwest, according to the release. 

Athabascans, including Dena'ina and Ahtna people, are Dene speakers.

"This is the oldest known site on the east side of Upper Cook Inlet and further substantiates Dena'ina and Ahtna oral traditions that JBER and the surrounding area have been used for a very long time," archaeologist and JBER cultural resource manager Margan Grover said.

Most of the site was demolished by the military in 1942, Grover said.

Yet the pit and its intact birchbark lining was one of the few undisturbed features left at the Dene site.

Samples of the intact bark lining were used to test the age and contents of the pit. 

"Additional radiocarbon and stable isotope tests could yield new and significant information about the history of Upper Cook Inlet," Ortiz said.

"We are also testing to determine what types of food were stored in the cache."

Preliminary findings indicate the cache was used to store moose or caribou meat. 

"People came to this area in the spring and would stay through the summer to catch and preserve salmon," according to the release.

Grover called the discovery "an opportunity for people to understand who the Dene of Knik Arm are and how their ancestors lived on the land that is now JBER and Anchorage."

Pizza fans who are also hopeless romantics are in luck this Valentine's Day.

Several chains are selling heart-shaped pies this year.

Pizza Hut first sold the pies in 2017 — and will be bringing them back for Valentine's Day in 2025, the Texas-based restaurant chain's website said.  

PINEAPPLE ON PIZZA: IT'LL COST YOU $121 AT A PIZZERIA WHOSE OWNERS 'LOATHE' THE TOPPING

"Heart-shaped pizza is a medium 1-topping hand-tossed pizza that's, you guessed it, shaped like a heart," according to the Pizza Hut website.

The item, the website said, could be for almost any occasion, including "Valentine's, Galentine's or whatever-tine's." 

Buyers should know that the heart-shaped pizza does have an odd quirk beyond its shape: It's not sliced. 

"Pizza arrives uncut because we don't break hearts, we bake them," Pizza Hut stated.

The heart-shaped pizza will be available from Feb. 11 through Feb 17, the brand said. 

Pizza Hut is not the only pizza chain to add a romantic touch to its pies this February.

Papa Johns' heart-shaped pizza is baked with a thin crust and comes with one topping, the Kentucky-based chain said on its website. 

"Experience love at first bite this Valentine's Day," Papa Johns said.

The pizza, similar to the one sold by Pizza Hut, does not come sliced. Its price starts at $11.99.

The brand called it "the perfect choice" for Valentine's Day. 

The heart-shaped pizza at Papa Johns is available from Feb. 5 through Valentine's Day.

"To keep the shape of your heart-shaped pizza, cut from the top middle straight down to the point of the heart, then cut horizontally to make the slices as evenly-sized as possible," the website suggested.

California Pizza Kitchen is also selling heart-shaped pies as part of its "Sweetest Meal for Two" promotion.

The meal comes with one starter, two entrées (including four options of heart-shaped pies) and a dessert, according to the California Pizza Kitchen website. 

The promotion is valid from Feb. 10 through Feb. 15 while supplies last, the chain said. 

The prices of fast-food items have been rising steadily over the years — and some restaurants use a technique that entices people to pay more than perhaps they were planning to, a psychotherapist told Fox News Digital. 

The so-called "charm pricing" technique is why many menu items are not priced at full dollar amounts, Jonathan Alpert, a New York-based psychotherapist and author, told Fox News Digital.

"Our brains process numbers quickly and often emotionally, especially during purchasing decisions," Alpert said.

FAST-FOOD MENU ITEMS THAT CHEFS LIKE TO EAT

When an item is priced at $9.99, "our minds latch onto the '9' as the anchor, associating it with a smaller cost, even if logically we know it's close to $10," he said. 

This is called the "left-digit effect," according to the food and culture website The Takeout. 

"This can trick you into feeling like an item is less expensive," according to The Takeout. 

"If you're buying three items priced at $5.99, your brain might immediately assume the total is $15, when in actuality it's closer to $18."

It added that people may feel they're "getting a bargain or a deal." 

TIPS AND TRICKS FOR HOSTING AN EPIC SUPER BOWL PARTY

Aside from this "charm pricing," restaurants try other ways to get people to spend more money than they planned, Alpert said.  

These include offering an "appealing menu design or descriptive language that makes the purchase feel more worthwhile and indulgent," he said. 

Fox News Digital reached out to the National Restaurant Association, which declined to comment.

Fox News Digital also reached out to several fast-food chains seeking comment.

Alpert noted that there are ways to combat the pressure to overspend.

"A helpful tip is to always round up," he said. "When you see $9.99, think of it as $10."

Doing this, he said, "can reduce the emotional impact of charm pricing and help you make more rational decisions."

Another technique is to think through purchases carefully and make a decision to spend less impulsively. 

"Pause and ask yourself if the item is really worth the cost or if you're being swayed by how it's presented," Alpert said.

"Developing mindful spending habits can help you resist psychological tricks and make choices that align with your goals," he also said.

New Orleans is the host city of this year's Super Bowl — and if you're throwing a party to celebrate the big game, you may want to incorporate some of the Big Easy's culinary flavors into your offerings.

Fox News Digital reached out to chefs in New Orleans for some dishes that are sure to score a touchdown at Super Bowl parties this year.

Whether you're rooting for the Kansas City Chiefs or the Philadelphia Eagles, adding these Creole seasonings, seafood dishes, spicy bites and more can send your party spread soaring and leave a mark on your guests.

HOW TO WATCH SUPER BOWL LIX BETWEEN CHIEFS, EAGLES STREAMED ON TUBI

Here are four dishes to consider.

This comforting favorite can feed a crowd of football fans. 

With shrimp, blue crabs, shucked oysters, chopped vegetables, seafood stock and more, this dish was created by Donald Link, a James Beard Award-winning chef with the New Orleans-based Link Restaurant Group — which includes Herbsaint, Cochon, Cochon Butcher, Calcasieu, Pêche, La Boulangerie and Giannacan. 

"Growing up in southwest Louisiana, there was always a pot of gumbo simmering on Super Bowl Sunday," Link told Fox News Digital. 

EAGLES FAN FAVORITE IS PHILADELPHIA'S SIGNATURE SANDWICH, NO PEPPERS INCLUDED

The gumbo can be prepared while you're watching the pregame coverage. 

Then, once the guests arrive — serve it up and catch their winning reactions.

Relying on sweet, sautéed onions and a rich sour cream-mascarpone base, this party dip is delicious and can be served with potato chips or spicy cheddar crackers, Link said. 

This dip comes together by combining ingredients such as onions, mascarpone, mayonnaise, sour cream and a spice blend found in most pantries. 

KANSAS CITY HOME TO AMERICA'S BEST BARBECUE, CHEFS CLAIM: 'OUR VARIETY MAKES US UNIQUE'

"I grew up with an extremely large extended family, so you could always expect to see rooms covered in deviled eggs, boudin, chips and onion dip around the room and, of course, a lot of bowls of gumbo, especially after our annual football game with my uncles," Link recalled.

It's a tradition he's carried on for 37 years, he said.

"One year, I actually gave up Super Bowl tickets because I couldn't stand the idea of not making my gumbo and canceling the annual party."

Ryan Pearson, executive chef at Couvant inside The Eliza Jane hotel in New Orleans, told Fox News Digital that chicken wings with a Big Easy spin can be a party favorite. 

THIS NFL CITY HAS THE COUNTRY'S BEST CHOWDER, RESTAURANT OWNER PROCLAIMS

"Chicken wings with a sauce made from reduced Crystal Hot Sauce, honey and butter are, simply put, delicious," Pearson said. 

"The dish is using beloved southern ingredients, so it feels elevated without being too much work." 

The southern twist uses Crystal Hot Sauce, which has been a New Orleans staple since 1923.

"My mom used to say, 'Add Tabasco for heat. Add Crystal for flavor,'" the New Orleans chef said.

A change of play on a burger creates a cool party dish that pays tribute to the culinary fame of New Orleans. 

Mark Bucher, a "Taste of the NFL" chef, restaurateur and owner of Medium Rare in New Orleans, uses Andouille sausage to elevate this festive dish, he said. 

Some cocoa powder, cinnamon and hot picks like chili powder and cloves create a stirring flavor combination, said Bucher. 

The burger sauce can be blended from a few pantry condiments on hand — but the final play is adding Frito's on top for the crunch, he added.

"Chili is a tailgate classic but adding it to a burger turns up the flavor while keeping it fun and accessible," Bucher told Fox News Digital. 

"With the savory heat from the Andouille sausage and the tangy punch from the vinegar and spices, these burgers are built to hold up against a day of game-watching. It's that perfect mix of hearty, satisfying comfort and big flavor that makes it the ideal dish for a Super Bowl party."

The burger sauce also adds a bit of tang and crunch to balance the richness of the chili, he said.

"Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA) became a rallying cry during the final months of the 2024 presidential election, after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. endorsed President Donald Trump and joined his campaign.

Breadcrumbs sold for months throughout the United States contain an undeclared allergen and are being recalled for safety reasons, the Food and Drug Administration announced on its website on Jan. 28.

La Fiesta Food Products, LLC, which is based in La Miranda, California, announced the recall on its website on Jan. 25. The FDA published it three days later, on the 28th.

The recalled products include 8-ounce packages of La Fiesta brand "Unseasoned Bread Crumbs (Pan Rayado)" and "Seasoned Bread Crumbs (Pan Rayado Sazonado)," said the release from La Fiesta Food Products. 

FDA CLASSIFIES CHOCOLATE RECALL TO MOST SERIOUS LEVEL

"The products contain sesame as an undeclared allergen. Additionally, the labels do not include the allergen declaration in Spanish," said the release. 

"People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to sesame run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products," said La Fiesta Foods, who noted "No illnesses have been reported to date in connection with this issue."

The unseasoned bread crumbs were sold at stores throughout the United States from April 10, 2024, through Jan. 22, 2025, said La Fiesta. 

The seasoned breadcrumbs were sold from Aug. 29, 2024, through Jan. 22, 2025.

"The recall was initiated after discovering that the product contained undeclared sesame. Further investigation revealed that the issue was caused by errors on the product labeling," said La Fiesta Foods. 

Those who have the recalled products "are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund," said the release. 

In 2023, the FDA added sesame as the ninth major food allergen in the United States, Fox News Digital previously reported.

The previous eight foods identified as major allergens – milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, and soybeans – account for 90% of food allergies, said the FDA's website. 

"In addition, the Food Allergy Safety, Treatment, Education and Research (FASTER) Act of 2021, declared sesame as a major food allergen," said the FDA. 

"These nine foods, and any ingredient that contains protein derived from one or more of them, are designated as 'major food allergens.'"

The Food and Drug Administration has reclassified a recall of chocolate products to its most serious level. 

On Dec. 12, 2024, the Cal Yee Farm LLC of Suisun Valley, California, issued a recall for several of its chocolate and yogurt-covered products, as well as its trail mix and toffee, due to undeclared allergens. 

"People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk, soy, wheat, sesame, FD&C #6 and almonds run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products," according to a release from Cal Yee Farm that was published on the FDA's website at the time.

The products were sold in nine states — California, Arizona, Virginia, New Mexico, Texas, Tennessee, Oregon, Ohio and Pennsylvania — the release said.

In the Jan. 29 weekly enforcement report, the FDA classified the recall of eight Cal Yee Farm products as a "Class I" designation.

A "Class I" recall is "a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of, or exposure to, a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death," according to the FDA's website.

No illnesses related to the candies have been reported, the FDA's website said.

"The recall was initiated after an FDA inspection of our facility where it was discovered that products containing milk, soy, wheat, sesame, FD&C #6 and almonds were distributed in packaging that did not reveal the presence of milk, soy, wheat, sesame, FD&C #6 and almonds," said a release from Cal Yee Farm that was published by the FDA. 

Those with allergies to those foods and who believe they might have the recalled products "should not consume the product and should dispose of them or return them to us for a full refund," the release said. 

Super Bowl Sunday is often one of the busiest days of the year when it comes to at-home parties.

Whether you're cheering for the Kansas City Chiefs or the Philadelphia Eagles — or if you're just there for the commercials — Super Bowl parties are a great place to eat, drink and socialize.

Fox News Digital asked two event experts what their playbook looks like for throwing an epic Super Bowl party this year.

HOW TO WATCH SUPER BOWL LIX BETWEEN CHIEFS, EAGLES STREAMED ON TUBI

Make sure your menu accounts for every type of eater, said Los Angeles-based food expert and event planner Christine Lusita.

"Healthy options, gluten-free, vegan — and of course traditional indulgence," Lusita told Fox News Digital. 

"This sets the tone," Lusita said, and "is especially helpful for those who do have dietary restrictions."

Options that offer popular appeal are a win. 

"Go for a wide range of appetizers, both hot and cold, in addition to the basic chips and dips that we all love," Lusita said. 

"Include veggies and fruit options, as well as main dishes like sandwich boards or hot-food classics like pasta or pizza."

The food should be not only delicious but easy to grab and low stress for hosts and guests alike, Olivia Pollock, Evite's party and hosting expert in Los Angeles, told Fox News Digital. 

"Think sliders, wings, nachos and dips that people can snack on during every quarter of the game," Pollock said. 

"For something like the Super Bowl, I suggest setting everything out and letting guests munch away during the game."

A buffet "works best," allowing guests to relax, eat at their leisure and enjoy the game, Lusita said.

Pollock also agreed with planning for guests' dietary restrictions. 

In the final quarter, keep your dessert offerings easy. 

"I love to pop in some small dessert options at a party as well," said Lusita. "Easy grab-and-go cookies, brownie bites or ice cream bars are typically a huge hit."

Decorate your party space to excite the team. 

"Set the mood of your party with fun, colorful decor, comfy seating and upbeat music, so when they arrive, it brings the energy up right from the start," Lusita told Fox News Digital.

"Hosting the big game-day party seamlessly is creating a good vibe and giving your guests choices which makes them feel a part of the party."

Plus, providing an environment where people can just kick back and relax without having to worry about what they can or can't eat keeps them coming back year after year, she said.

As the host, you want to enjoy the game as well, so allowing guests to mix their own drinks is a winning play.

A do-it-yourself drink bar "is a hit at any gathering, but especially for the Super Bowl," Pollock told Fox News Digital. 

She suggested setting up a station for guests to create their own cocktails and mocktails throughout the game. 

"For some extra fun, make a pre-batched mocktail themed for each team and see whose drink goes quicker," Pollock said. "Plus, guests can always turn their mocktails into cocktails by setting out liquor to add."

Be sure to set out a cooler filled with canned drinks, water and children's options, she said.

"It's interactive, keeps things flowing and means you don't have to worry about constantly serving everyone," Pollock said. "Plus, it's a great way to keep the energy up all game long."

Before Super Bowl Sunday arrives, consider a sign-up sheet and have your guests contribute to your party spread. 

"Guests will most likely show up with something, so a sign-up sheet is a great way to let guests choose what they want to bring and a surefire way to make sure that there's not multiple pots of chili and no dessert," Pollock told Fox News Digital. 

"It also helps take the pressure off you so you can focus on enjoying the game, too."

In a Senate hearing, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. said that efforts to address the high rates of chronic disease need to start with fixing the food supply.

As Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appeared on Capitol Hill Wednesday for the confirmation hearing for HHS Secretary, supporters and leaders in the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement gathered to show their support.

Among the supporters was Marla Maples, ex-wife of President Trump and mother to Tiffany Trump, who co-founded the Global Wellness Forum.

The organization "unites and empowers groups and activists worldwide, amplifying their efforts to promote health, sovereignty, truth and transparency," according to its website.

Maples spoke with Fox News Digital in an on-camera interview sharing her excitement for the MAHA movement and her hopes for a healthier America under her friend Kennedy.

"I have to support America's health, our children's health … we suffered so long with what they're putting in our food supply without having consent on what we're getting medically," said Maples.

Maples added, "It's the most important thing I think we have for ourselves [and] our children … and I have a little grandbaby coming, so I want to make sure we leave a cleaner world for our children's children, too."

Tiffany, 30, is expecting a child with her husband Michael Boulos, President Trump announced in October.

Maples shared that Americans should "read every label" of the food they are consuming.

"Just make sure you stay away from corn syrups, any artificial colors. I've been telling people forever. No refined sugars." 

Maples said she believes Americans should rely on their own intuition when it comes to their health.

"Truly, you have an inner sense of what's good for us, and really trusting that, taking time and just caring enough about yourself."

She added, "It's really about maintaining your own health and being your own best doctor."

Maples also advocated for people growing their own food when possible.

"If you have the chance to grow your own garden, that's the best. I used to do it growing up. Now I live in a condo and I have little herbs growing."

The wellness advocate is also a big believer in the power of prayer, sharing, "Be really sure before you put anything in your body and pray over it all."

To stay fit both physically and mentally, Maples shared that she does handstands and lots of stretching.

"If I have a chance to play a sport during the week, I'll get out and do that because it keeps my mind very clear and helps my mind be very focused."

Representatives of the Global Wellness Forum were also seen supporting Kennedy at his confirmation hearing.

"We're going to be helping support Bobby and Bobby's initiatives in the government … making sure there's a way we can bring teams together to support what he's going to be doing in the government, so we can support in the community," Maples added.

While many issues turned Canadians away from their prime minister, the high cost of groceries and homes has become a chief grievance.
