“Can you smell what The Rock is cooking?”
No, literally, can you smell what he’s cooking for his seven daily meals? Last week, Muscle and Fitness gave readers the ins and outs of The Rock’s caloric intake. And what do you know, it’s completely insane. Ten pounds of food every day, to be exact.
A brief sampling:
Meal 1
10 oz cod
2 whole eggs
2 cups oatmealMeal 2
8 oz cod
12 oz sweet potato
1 cup veggiesMeal 3
8 oz chicken
2 cups white rice
1 cup veggiesMeal 4
8 oz cod
2 cups rice
1 cup veggies
1 tbsp fish oil
That doesn’t include all the protein shakes he takes in or the 32 oz. of Gatorade he chugs after his workout. The man is a freakin’ garbage disposal.
ESPN’s Five Thirty Eight broke down The Rock’s eating habits compared to an average male of the same age.
The average American man in his forties consumes 2,734 calories daily, according to data from the USDA. Johnson eats roughly 1,000 calories a day in cod alone. Annualized, Johnson eats about 821 pounds of cod per year. According to FishChoice, Pacific cod goes for $1.75 per pound, meaning Johnson spends roughly $1,400 per year on cod. As all our cod consumption slowly progresses past sustainable levels, let’s all consider Dwayne Johnson uniquely responsible.
In short, this proves what many of us already knew: The Rock is not human. He is a superhero. He is a mutant. He is a real life X-Men with a very expensive grocery bill.
