Non-trivial taste preferences of iconic rock performers (17 photos)
Rock stars are generally wealthy people and can easily afford to eat whatever their soul and body desire.
Many are traditional, some are on diets, and others have very specific taste preferences.
Mysterious India
Jimmy Page is an ardent fan of this particular cuisine. And the presence of Indian food backstage at Led Zeppelin concerts is common.
Almost classic vegan
Sting's nutrition is focused on a macrobiological diet: the diet should contain environmentally friendly products from the region where the person lives. The musician’s menu contains a minimum of dairy and meat products.
Cracker animals
Stevie Nicks' cute food hobby is eating animal crackers. The singer loves them so much that she even asks her friends to put the cookies away. To avoid overeating.
Who wants fish?
Even at the dawn of his career, Roger Daltrey dreamed of having his own pond where he could fish. The Who lead singer's dream has come true. In addition, he loves to pamper himself by visiting fish restaurants and strictly ensures that all products are exceptionally fresh.
Oatmeal, sir?
Lars Ulrich follows a special diet that includes oatmeal pancakes. Thanks to this dish, he gets plenty of energy: it’s enough for both playing on the kit and for regular half-hour runs.
Sausages and beans
Dave Grohl is fond of a certain type of sausage - bangers, which usually burst during cooking. The most popular way to serve it is with mashed potatoes or beans.
With spice and pepper
Alice Cooper loves spicy burgers with a sauce that he personally developed. True, the rocker admits that the invention is so spicy that he is not able to finish a cheeseburger completely.
May grapefruits
Brian May admitted that the healthy bittersweet fruit even helped him cope with depression. The guitarist is a staunch vegetarian, does not eat meat and protects animals.
Simple and tasteful
Bono and The Edge are frequent visitors to pizzerias around the world. In 1992, Bono even ordered 10,000 pizzas for fans attending a concert in Detroit. They appreciated the star’s gesture, because they received not only aesthetic, but also gastronomic pleasure from the performance.
Cheese from the Prince of Darkness
Ozzy Osbourne has repeatedly admitted that the love of his life is cheese. In any quantities and different combinations. For dessert, the Prince of Darkness prefers black licorice.
Traditional and satisfying
Steven Tyler loves the closed chicken pie, which in addition to meat includes beans, carrots and a special creamy sauce.
Animal Defender
Paul McCartney is a staunch vegetarian. Sir Paul admitted that he didn’t even try to become a radical vegan, because he really loves cheese and eggs. One of the Beatle's signature dishes is a burger with a bean patty.
And again oatmeal
Rebel Gene Simmons loves the humble classic oatmeal. But not in the form of cereals: the musician experiments and mixes cereals with cottage cheese, fruits and more. It turns out tasty, healthy and not too high in calories.
Pasta fanatic
Pat Benatar loves pasta, culinary experimentation and even cooks herself while on tour, lugging around a gallery of pots, pans and portable cooking devices.
By the way, the favorite dish of the legendary Elvis Presley was a giant sandwich with a very strange combination of ingredients: it included a jar of jam and peanut butter and almost half a kilo of bacon.
The calorie content of this monster was about 8 thousand calories. For an ordinary person, it will last for 3-4 days. But... This is Elvis - mysterious and incomprehensible.
