“But Yes I Swallowed It!”: 45-Year-Old Tom Brady Was Bossed Around by a Little Kid When He Refused to Eat an Exotic Fruit

Throughout his NFL run, Tom Brady has often done things that many consider mind-boggling. Be it drawing his team to the playoffs, seven Super Bowl triumphs, giving his best at 45, and much more. All the credits go to his diet regime, which may look meta-humanistic. However, Brady clarified that he also goes through cheat days and does not follow the diet all the time — but he hates strawberries.

In an interview appearance, Tom Brady sat down with TODAY’s Craig Melvin and Dylan Dreyer. As they concentrated on multiple topics, the hosts also touched upon the nutrition and dietary aspect. Surprisingly, it also includes cheat days with meals of his choice.

Just like any ordinary person, Brady also loves some fast food items and confections. But he was also forced to eat the fruit he dislikes by his daughter, Vivian. Brady mentioned, “My daughter made me eat one (strawberries). I basically – she basically bosses me around. But yes, I swallowed it. I don’t even think I took a chew.”

When speaking of his cheat days, he said, “I always try to make that really clear. Most people think it is a crazy diet. And I think that is just kind of low-hanging fruit so to speak. I try to drink a lot of water. I like cheeseburgers, ice cream, chocolate cake. I like what everyone else likes.”

In case readers are curious, Brady’s diet does not limit the intake of strawberries. He cannot stand the red berries. He despises all its aspects, including the taste, texture, and smell.

A show host made Tom Brady eat something he loathes

As it turns out, Vivian was not the first who made Tom Brady eat a strawberry. During his appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the host was determined to break the habit. He gave the NFL GOAT a dish of strawberries and challenged him to eat one. He exclaimed it was not bad before pivoting to the lens.

However, Colbert not only made the quarterback eat a strawberry but also dared him to a beer chug duel. Brady did it swiftly, even finishing the last slurp he left before the host did. Tom Brady may not drink beer very often because of his diet, but he certainly knows how to chug it.
