LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In a recent appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live', Terry Crews, known for his humor both on and off-screen, had the audience in stitches as he candidly revealed the ins and outs of his unique eating habits.

The actor, who practices intermittent fasting, left no detail untouched as he shared the quirks and consequences of his dietary choices.

Terry Crews unveils his unconventional eating routine

"I do intermittent fasting, right, so this is part of my weird schedule. My wife hates this, but I start at 2 pm. I don't eat anything until 2 pm, and my last meal usually is before I go to bed, like 8:00 or whatever," Crews explained.

He went on to describe his condensed eating window, acknowledging that it might sound like he's leading a challenging lifestyle.

"But you know what this is the thing, man, and this is what I discovered. You know, I used to eat all day. I remember at 18, man, I could down three pizzas, and I'd be like abs like H, and then all of a sudden, one year I was like in my 40s, and I was like, 'Oh, I don't feel good. What is happening?'" Crews hilariously recounted the realization that age caught up with him.

Reflecting on the changes that come with aging, Crews emphasized the importance of being mindful about what one consumes. "Once you get older, you realize, wait a minute, I have to think about everything I'm putting in my body right now. Yeah, you're thinking about it a lot," he added.

Terry Crews unleashes food funnies

The conversation then took a humorous turn as Crews, with his trademark charm, discussed his love for food, especially sweets. "I love to eat. I love sweets. I work out so I can have the pound cake, so I eat for that three and a half hour window a day, and I pay my price," he chuckled.

Crews also touched upon the aftermath of indulging in certain foods, recounting a hilarious incident involving homemade cream cheese ice cream.

"I made some cream cheese ice cream. Oh my God, it was absolutely fantastic. But this is the problem, I had it right before bed, and it reacted with me. When I say I farted all night, I couldn't stop farting. It was into the gym morning. I was still going," Crews admitted, prompting laughter from the audience.



 

As the interview wrapped up, Crews jokingly mentioned his ban on cream cheese ice cream, leaving the audience in splits with his candid and comedic food revelations.
