Gwyneth Paltrow Sounds Off At Critics Of Her Controversial Eating Routine
In response to Gwyneth Paltrow’s diet revelations, Tess Holliday argued in a TikTok video, “Bone broth is not a suitable meal.” But in a series of videos on her Instagram Stories, Paltrow said that she doesn’t survive solely by slurping down stock made from simmered bones and nibbling on salads. “I eat full meals. I also have days where I eat whatever I want, French fries or whatever,” she said. In fact, she once told Harper’s Bazaar, “French fries are sort of my favorite meal, not that they’re a meal, they’re a side. But I guess I could eat them for a meal, and I would.”
On Instagram, Paltrow further explained that what she said on “The Art of Being Well” wasn’t supposed to be health advice; she was just having a conversation with her doctor, podcast host Dr. Will Cole, about an eating plan that has worked for her. According to Paltrow, she has long COVID and has been experiencing a lot of inflammation, so she tries to eat foods that won’t exacerbate this symptom.
What Paltrow didn’t address were the complaints that bone broth should not be considered a meal (or a soup, for that matter), but maybe less is more when it comes to the actor sharing her food for thought with the world. After all, according to Page Six, she did once say on “Late Night with Conan O’Brien,” “I would rather die than let my kid eat Cup-a-Soup.”
