Sara Haines Says She’s “Disturbed” After Learning About Whoopi Goldberg’s “Unusual” Preferences
Sara Haines Walks Off The View Following Whoopi Goldberg’s Shocking Comment
A recent episode of The View took an unexpected turn when co-host Sara Haines briefly stepped away from the set in response to a surprising remark from Whoopi Goldberg.
The moment occurred on the Wednesday, November 13 broadcast, as Goldberg showcased some of her favorite products. One of the featured items was a wheel of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, customized with Goldberg’s face. Haines, amused by the concept, quipped, “I’ve always wanted my face on cheese.”
Goldberg, known for her quick wit, playfully responded, “Yeah, I like to be eaten from time to time.”
The audience erupted in laughter as Haines, visibly caught off guard, momentarily left the stage before returning to embrace Goldberg in a lighthearted manner.
Feigning innocence, Goldberg pointed at the cheese and smirked before adding, “Never mind,” as she transitioned back to discussing the product.

Haines Playfully Fires Back
As Goldberg continued detailing the cheese giveaway, Haines chimed in with a cheeky response: “And eat Whoopi Goldberg.”
Goldberg then clarified that the contest allowed participants to have their own faces printed on a cheese wheel, not just hers.
Although the exchange was intended to be humorous, it quickly became a topic of debate among viewers, with some questioning whether Goldberg’s joke was appropriate for daytime television.
Whoopi Goldberg Opens Up About Financial Realities
Aside from the humorous exchange, Goldberg also made headlines earlier in the week when she spoke openly about her financial situation.
During the Tuesday, November 12 episode of The View, the panel discussed how Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had recently engaged with her Instagram followers about their voting choices. Haines shared that while she had voted for Kamala Harris, she was interested in understanding why some Americans supported Donald Trump, particularly those who viewed him as a candidate focused on the working class.
Goldberg then took the opportunity to express her understanding of financial hardships—revealing that she, too, works out of necessity.
“I know people are struggling. I am, too. I work for a living. If I had all the money in the world, I wouldn’t be here, okay? I’m a working person,” she stated.
She further explained the importance of supporting her family. “My child has to provide for her household. My great-granddaughter needs to be taken care of. I know it’s not easy.”
Goldberg also commended Ocasio-Cortez’s efforts to engage voters, adding, “We hear from people all the time about their concerns. But the issues we all face shouldn’t be the reason 85 percent of others are put at risk. That’s what we’re trying to highlight.”
