The View’s Ana Navarro admits she fears co-host Joy Behar as she reveals scathing reason she’ll ‘never’ taste her food
‘I will not eat anything until somebody else tastes it and lives 24 hours to tell the story’
ANA Navarro has confessed that she doesn’t mess with her co-host Joy Behar – especially regarding her cooking.
The talk show host spoke about the pair’s relationship on Friday’s installment of The View: Behind the Table podcast.
At one point during the episode, Ana, 51, and The View‘s executive producer Brian Teta reminisced over the cast’s previous years’ Halloween costumes.
Brian first brought up the topic, recalling one year when Ana dressed up as Snow White for their Halloween-themed episode.
“That was when I was a contributor on The View, and Joy [Behar] decides she wanted to be the evil queen, and I was the Snow White that she was poisoning, which is very in character,” Ana remembered.
The story’s famed plot involves the evil queen tricking Snow White into eating a poisonous apple.

Ana then joked that the dual costumes are why she doesn’t eat Joy‘s food.
“Which is why I never eat anything that Joy Behar gives me. Nothing. Nothing. Not even the lasagna. I’m the only person who’s never tasted the lasagna,” the TV star admitted.
“I will not eat anything until somebody else tastes it and lives 24 hours to tell the story,” she added.
NASTY FIGHT
Shortly after on the podcast, Ana and Brian rehashed a previous fight they got into over Ana’s Halloween costume last year.
The daytime TV host transformed herself into Char from her memorable role on the classic TV series The Love Boat, but Brian wasn’t fond of her costume selection.
“Which we got into a fight about. You didn’t want me to be Charo. You wanted me to be, who? I forgot,” Ana said before the celebrity’s name came to mind.
“Oh, I know! You wanted me to be Lucy,” she recalled, referencing actress Lucille Ball from the 1950s hit show I Love Lucy.
“And I said I wanted to be a Latina because there’s not enough Latina representation,” she continued.
Brian explained he wasn’t in favor of Ana’s selection because of its contrast from her co-hosts’ costumes.
“My issue with it was that Charo wasn’t really a character – she was a guest star on The Love Boat…Everybody else was acting as TV characters on TV shows that were on every week,” he noted.
WILD BASH
The View stars filmed this year’s Halloween-themed episode before the spooky holiday’s actual date of October 31.
It happened hours after Ana threw a star-studded bash at her Miami, Florida, mansion that got shut down by the cops twice.
She detailed the incident earlier in the podcast episode and noted that she flew to New York City to film The View hours after it ended.
None of Ana’s co-hosts, including Joy, 81; Whoopi Goldberg, 67; Sara Haines, 46; Sunny Hostin, 55; and Alyssa Farah Griffin, 34, attended the bash.
