The nutritional dilemma: Brexton’s reaction to healthy eating

During Busch Jr’s recent race at Talladega, some precious family moments were captured, which the #8 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 driver shared on his youtube channel. When his mom brought some dry fruits for the young driver’s healthy nourishment, the resemblance between the father-son duo is uncanny!

“I don’t like organic. It gets me gas,” Kyle said, glancing at the jar. “Organic is good for you,” Samantha Busch refuted her husband as she brought them over to her son. 

As they say, like father, like son, Brexton screamed, “No, no!” Mama Busch didn’t back down, adding, “You have to eat some nuts too. Healthy. You need protein for these muscles.” 

“Oh My God, stop!” Brex replied with embarrassment. “To get all the ladies.” his mother encouraged him with a laugh. Although unwillingly, he still ate the dry fruits his mother gave him, while still complaining, “I don’t care.”
