HAMPTON, GEORGIA: 'Mama June' star Anna Cardwell died at the age of 29. As the family still struggles with the heartbreaking truth, people recall the late star's eating habits. 

Since Shannon's family has been known for their unhealthy diets, they are often reported to be eating junk food. Therefore, many believed Anna would have had the same diet as others.

A user took to the Reddit thread with the title "Anna's diet," saying, "Anna's cancer diagnosis makes me especially sad because I remember on Honey Boo Boo that Anna was always trying to eat healthy. I remember her eating fresh veggies and snacking on a bag of nuts while June and the rest of the girls acted like they were going to throw up if they ate a vegetable."

Anna used to "make comments about junk food" and encourage people to try healthy food. The user further added, "Very unfair for the people who are trying to do the healthy thing being repayed with a fatal cancer diagnosis."

Another claimed, "I know right I remember that episode where Anna was eating dried banana chips an raisings & nuts 🤯 I said to myself out of all of them if you'd of said to me a decade ago that one of them will die young of cancer I wouldn't of thought of Anna."

Another sad user wrote, "And she has alwaysed looked the healthiest one out of all of her sisters and her mother. And yet she had terminal cancer? So sad."
