If you want to eat chocolate or cakes, you have to eat it in the morning, for breakfast or lunch – don’t eat it in the night.
If God gives you chocolate, you open your mouth, no?
I don’t really work out. I eat a lot of sweets. I have chocolate all over my house.
My parents screened ‘Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory’ for my 6th birthday, and I became fascinated by the idea of living in a candy land with chocolate rivers and lollipop trees.
Theologically, the creation of chocolate demonstrates both the unity and the diversity of humanity. Wherever you taste it, in every country of the world, it is immediately recognizable. Other things, in every cuisine, are just food, but chocolate is chocolate.
If I feel like a night in, or if I have an early plane to catch, I like to make some chai tea and snack on dark chocolate while watching a movie on my projector and big screen. I’m crazy about all kinds of movies, especially the classic Steven Spielberg ones or ‘The Godfather.’
It’s about avoiding reality through various escape routes that become addictions and lead to Hell. My character is addicted to television, chocolate, coffee, to her dream of her son, which has no basis in reality.
I literally never ate fruit or vegetables before. My diet instead revolved around ice cream, chocolate, peanut butter and jelly eaten with a spoon, pick-n-mix, and lots of cereal and pasta – I was a sugar monster.
I ate everything. I ate every single lolly you can think of. Chocolate bars, Curly Wurlys, Aero bars, Fantales, Minties, Clinkers, Cherry Ripes. Pretty much anything, you name it, I ate it.
I’m not saying I don’t enjoy the days that I’m not eating chocolate cake. But I do particularly like those days when I am eating chocolate cake.
The older I get, the harder it is to splurge without consequences. I love food. Chocolate and cheese and anything that’s bad for me. I’ll be really good when I’m at home so I can eat what I want to when I’m out with friends.
I love chocolate cake. I’m French. I also love cheese and bread, so I could just live on that. But I can’t do that to myself, so I have to moderate.
To what extent a film works is beyond me. My first film ‘Aashiq Banaya Aapne’ did wonders at the box office. Then ‘Chocolate’ was also quite popular, but it didn’t have the same effect as the first one.
Growing up, I loved looking at the photos in my mother’s old Betty Crocker cookbook: the chocolate cakes, the cookie house, even the cheese balls and fondues.
I adore dark chocolate.
North America was ready for something other than a vanilla cooking show and we were providing the double dark chocolate fudge.
You take the best ingredients – the best cocoa beans – and you process them in the best traditional way, and you have the best chocolate.
L.A. is cool because its still got the beaches and stuff like Sydney. But I can’t get Tim Tams. They’re, like, these chocolate biscuits with chocolate on the inside and on the outside, and they are the best.
I don’t wanna say I have a temper… but I do! I kind of sulk and sit there when I’m bitter. I won’t show you, but you can see it. Probably if you bring me Godiva chocolate, I’ll be your friend again!
My wife said, ‘Take me in your arms and whisper something soft and sweet.’ I said, ‘chocolate fudge.’
I love nothing more than a good, rich, dark chocolate. It exhilarates. It satisfies.
My favorite thing about the holiday season is the lights! I love walking around with family, friends, and a cup of peppermint hot chocolate to look at all the beautiful lights and decorations.
I know you’re supposed to love yourself, but I really hate the way I look. When I look in the mirror I’m so disgusted by the chocolate blancmange abomination staring back at me, I actually apologise to my wife for my physical appearance. I’ve got no backside, an overhanging belly and I’m so disproportionate.
I’m pretty sure I became an actress solely because of craft services. When you’re a kid and there’s a lady walking around with a tray of chocolate and other free candy, that’s the best reason to be in the industry!
When I come to Chicago, I gorge myself. I get off the plane and start with Gene and Jude’s for two hot dogs with everything, swing by The Fudge Pot for a taffy apple and a turtle, chocolate clusters at Sarah’s Pastries and Candies and steak at Smith and Wollensky. I find time for Gino’s pizza within the next 12 hours.
I use the ‘Too Faced Chocolate Bar Eye Shadow’ Palette every day. I’ve tried a bunch of stuff, but this is my favorite. For eyebrows, I use the ‘Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow’ Pomade in Dark Brown, and for mascara, I don’t use anything else but ‘Urban Decay Perversion’ Mascara.
When I get back to Derry I always enjoy a good fry-up that my mum makes. That’s my big weakness. I also eat too much chocolate.
I might have a chocolate bar on the go for energy.
I eat small portions of crisps, sweets, chocolate, pizza, chicken, cake, doughnuts, ice cream, noodles and pop tarts all day long, so I get pretty upset when people accuse me of being anorexic.
I’m all over the place with muffins. Carrots are great. Banana, chocolate chip, they rock, too.
Joining ‘ER,’ I felt like that kid who got the golden ticket in ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.’ I’ve been offered chocolate bars all these years, but there had been no golden ticket. Just the stomachache that was called ‘Jake in Progress.’
It is a privilege that women fancy me, but I cannot sustain the chocolate boy image forever. I don’t want to end up being known, like the late veteran Tamil actor Gemini Ganesan was, as the king of romance.
Chocolate is maybe my only vice. In particular, Godiva’s champagne truffles. Or Dean & Deluca vanilla cupcakes. Just thinking about them – oh my gosh!
I’ve got a really sweet tooth and sometimes I just have to have some chocolate.
I don’t think I have an obsession, however I do eat chocolate every day.
I love doing girly stuff with my mum or with Sophia. I took Sophia and a couple of her friends to the Hello Kitty spa. They had chocolate facials and Hello Kitty mani-pedis. I put it on my Twitter and got lots of abuse for it, but I think it’s just a nice girly thing.
Some of us have tough lives and find chocolate is a comfort and a friend. And some of us prefer a night on the sofa with Ant & Dec to hitting the gym. But whatever your excuse – and there is always an excuse – we are a nation of fatties.
Honestly, I just go to restaurants to eat so I won’t die. If there was a pill I could take in January and then I wouldn’t have to eat again for the rest of the year, I would take it. Of course, I wouldn’t want to sacrifice my chocolate cake and ice cream.
My favourite Korean food is delicious black five-layered pork belly, cooked over a charcoal grill. And Jeju chocolate, in citrus fruits and green tea flavour, which is famous throughout Korea.
Chocolate fondant, creme brule, and sponge cake with jam, cream and fresh berries are always winners.
I’m a dog lover. With the holidays, everything gets a little bit hectic. There’s a lot on your mind, and maybe you forget that your animals also feel that stress as well. So try to keep them on the same routine; try to keep the chocolate out of their mouth.
I love food and lots of my friends are chefs. I love dishes from my Russian-Polish Jewish heritage. I like to make a big pot of meat and vegetable soup, and for dessert it’s anything with chocolate.
How many times have you wanted to make a chocolate cake from scratch or prove you can make a flakey crust as good as your grandmother’s….but you just don’t have the time! A snow day is the perfect day to enlist the kids with no time pressure, or worse, dinner guests to impress.
I love dark chocolate. I’m also a peanut butter and chocolate fanatic. That’s pretty much the greatest invention of the last century.
I always keep a little bit of Lindt or Ghirardelli milk chocolate for when I’m stuck in traffic. And I’m a big fan of Mentos during long plane rides.
My music is like a baby pink frosted cake with sprinkles, but when you cut into it, there’s a gooey, dark chocolate center.
I can’t drink anything but chocolate. I don’t even like any milk but chocolate. When I eat cereal, I barely touch the white part.
Whenever I have even a spare second, I’m in the kitchen whipping up a batch of cookies. I make a mean batch of chocolate chippers.
I think chocolate in moderation is not bad for you, but I eat way too much. I tell myself I’m going to eat two squares, and then I end up eating half a big bar.
I need to have dark chocolate in the cupboard – Green & Black’s is good, but any will do.
Not all roles you do can be chocolate sweet.
Growing up in D.C. there are so many different types of educational and professional levels. They call D.C. ‘Chocolate City’ but just because we’re all chocolate doesn’t mean we’re all the same. In D.C., everyone co-exists harmoniously but the lines are still drawn. And people don’t really step over those lines.
Size zero doesn’t make you happy, and I’m not sure I have the discipline for Hollywood. I’m too much of a fan of chocolate and crisps.
I look back at my childhood, and the films that I remember the most are things like ‘Mary Poppins,’ ‘Chitty Chitty Bang Bang,’ ‘Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,’ ‘To Kill a Mockingbird.’
