Famous Food

J.D. Vance's appearance at a Georgia donut shop wasn't as sweet as the pastries he bought ... 'cause he sure had an awkward chat with an employee who appeared less than impressed.

The Republican nominee for vice president was in Valdosta, Georgia for a rally Thursday ... and, he stopped by Holt's Sweet Shop, where he ordered 2 dozen donuts with a gaggle of press following him around.

Vance put in his order ... and, check out the clip, 'cause the woman at the counter immediately asks not to be shown on camera. Vance makes a point of telling the press to cut her out of their vids.

Kanye West and wife Bianca Censori made a surprise KFC pit stop -- 'cause even celebs sometimes need some finger-lickin’ goodness every now and then!

The couple was recently spotted on CCTV ordering at an L.A. counter of the fast-food joint like any other regular customers -- but of course, Bianca wasn't about to go unnoticed ... keeping things spicy, flaunting serious cleavage in a barely-there bra.

Kanye was the polar opposite as usual -- wrapped up in a white hoodie, peering at the menu board, figuring out what to order.

The Burger King employee who went viral after management gave him a mediocre gift bag has his retirement plan ready ... and, it involves putting his culinary skills on wheels.

Kevin Ford -- who blew up in 2022 after his BK bosses gave him a pretty low-key cheap gift bag for his 27th anniversary even though he'd never missed a day of work -- tells TMZ he's bought a food truck for the next stage of his life.

Ford tells us he purchased the truck-trailer for about $20K, including shipping, from China -- a much cheaper price than you can find in the U.S. -- fully equipped with an oven, fryer and more ... basically, the works.

Angel Reese x Reese's is officially official!

The WNBA star and the popular candy co. have finally teamed up ... and are now bringing fans a limited-edition collection of jerseys, outerwear and more.

The collection is awesome, it features custom tees, hoodies, cropped shirts and hats that all feature peanut butter cups and Angel insignia.

YG's making peace over a hearty meal ... organizing a walk to put an end to years of strife between rivals Compton gangs -- and breaking bread, or in this case buns.

The rapper led the truce and walk Sunday ... joined by members of the Treetop Pirus and Fruit Town Pirus gangs, family members and kids as they journeyed through the streets of Compton.

During the walk, YG stopped off for food at Tam's Burgers ... bringing the whole squad into the small little shop with music bumping and the rapper even showing off some of his dance moves.

Simone Biles ate up the competition at the 2024 Olympics ... and, one restaurant knows it -- giving her a custom championship that's not exactly safe for work.

The 11-time Olympic medalist went out to dinner with her husband Jonathan Owens in Chicago after the Chicago Bears preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals ... and, the restaurant they dined at -- Maple & Ash -- surprised the Olympian.

Scrawled across the front -- over her eating options -- in big letters read "Olympic F***ing Champion" ... something SB loved by the way, 'cause she posted multiple pics and vids about it.

Wally Amos, the founder of the Famous Amos Cookies brand, has died ... his children, Shawn and Sarah Amos, confirmed.

According to the cookie king's children, Wally passed away in his home in Honolulu, Hawaii on Tuesday after suffering from complications from dementia.

Wally became a prominent name in the food world after he turned a $25K loan into the Famous Amos Cookies empire. WA shook up the baked goods game by using a recipe from his aunt, which included real ingredients -- no added chemicals or coloring.

Bianca Censori is continuing her nearly-naked signature style to include an itty-bitty micro ensemble ... which we're not entirely sure can be called a dress.

While the Yeezy architect was technically covered up for an outing at Nobu Malibu with husband Kanye West's kids and some of her own family ... BC's outfit still left very little to the imagination -- as the scrap of clothing hung low enough to just barely cover her rump.

The top of the garment was equally risqué, as the "dress" covered only a portion of her breasts ... revealing ample cleavage for the family meal.

Chris Jones is gunning to spring a convicted chicken wing thief from prison ... the Chiefs superstar has offered to pay $1.5 million after a cafeteria employee was sentenced to 9 years behind bars for stealing 11k cases of Buffalo's favorite food!

68-year-old Vera Liddell, who worked at an elementary school in a Chicago suburb for nearly a decade, plead guilty to stealing millions in flats and drums over 19 months ... when she was in charge of ordering the food.

Ultimately, Liddell was caught during an audit ... when officials realized the school had gone way over their food budget.

Bun B says there is no comparison between Atlanta and Houston when it comes to fine dining ... the UGK legend thinks "The A" doesn't know the difference between a restaurant and a club!

The veteran MC admitted he lived in both ATL and HTX while ranking the two cities on the "Honey Drip Network & Aristotle" podcast ... he gives the nod to ATL overall -- but not when it comes to food.

Bun said ATL food joints don't put any elbow grease into their soul food, and they focus more on giving patrons an ambient experience ... but smoke and mirrors with tableside entertainment spectacles don't mean the food will taste great.

The company responsible for providing thousands of meals to the athletes in Paris' Olympic Village is addressing claims they served wormy fish, telling TMZ Sports the claim's bull****!

If you missed it, Adam Peaty, a British swimmer, talking to a newspaper, unloaded on the food selection and quality of the grub, even saying he knew of fellow athletes who claimed they found "worms in the fish."

No photo evidence was provided ... and when we reached out to the French catering company Sodexo Live! about the serious allegations, they went on the offensive.

Kanye West gave the gift of electricity to his longtime manager John Monopoly -- in the form of a brand spankin' new Tesla Cybertruck that left him speechless!!!

Ye and Bianca Censori were among the guests of honor last night at Giorgio Baldi's in Bev. Hills -- and of course, she popped out and showed everyone her goodies through a sheer bodysuit.

John's been rolling with Ye since his career started in the "I'm Good/College Dropout" era. Ye gave the party the ultimate mic-drop the moment he handed John the keycard that gives him access to his new tech toy.

Bianca Censori reigns supreme in the world of risqué fashion -- but she took things to the next level with her latest look by completely freeing the nipple while out to dinner.

The Aussie model made a wildly bold statement as she and hubby Ye exited his Cybertruck Thursday ... wearing a sheer nude bodysuit that left absolutely nothing to the imagination, which made it look like she was walking into L.A.’s Giorgio Baldi completely unclothed.

The plunging bodysuit seemed almost unnecessary ... and even by Bianca's bold standards, this look was off the charts scandalous with her tatas fully on display for all to see.

The Olympic Village is a disaster this go-around ... but, surfing competitors aren't feeling the stress -- 'cause they're 9,000 miles away living it up on what they're calling a party boat!

Photos and videos from various surf athletes are flooding social media ... and, while their fellow Olympians complain of vegan-only diets and cardboard beds in Paris -- the surfers are chilling on a luxury cruise off the Tahitian coast in between events.

Check it out ... Paris athletes say they got five people to a bathroom in rooms without air conditioning -- but those on the Aranui 5 cruise ship 45 minutes from the surf in Tahiti are stretching out in private rooms with the sea breeze floating in through sliding glass doors.

Former "Top Chef" finalist Shirley Chung says she was diagnosed with tongue cancer after suffering serious dental issues.

Chung posted a message on Instagram detailing her painful journey that began with her biting her tongue and shattering her tooth, which had to be replaced with an implant.

She said at first she thought her ailments were due to her teeth grinding, but, by May, she had ulcers in her mouth and her oral surgeon found a tumor under her tongue. This turned out to be stage 4 cancer that had spread to her lymph nodes.

Ya gotta hand it to Haliey Welch ... the Internet's "Hawk Tuah" girl keeps spitting up new ideas to build a merchandising empire, attaching her catchphrase to all sorts of products and, umm ... services.

According to new trademark filings filed by Haliey's company, and obtained by TMZ, the budding entrepreneur's eyeing a couple of new business ventures -- including a sports betting service, which she notably dubs, "Bet on That Thang."

It appears the betting service will also extend to other types of entertainment services and casino gaming. Haliey hasn't really shown herself to be much of a gambler on social media ... but she'd be wise to get some skin in the gaming/wagering industry.
