TV ACTORS' ODD EATING HABITS

TV ACTORS' ODD EATING HABITS

NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) -- You think big movie stars are picky? They're nothing compared to the big shots of the boob tube. "TV Guide" is reporting many TV show producers are bending over backward to accommodate their actors' picky eating habits. For instance, there's "ER" guest star Alan Alda who refuses to drink coffee, so the prop department serves him flat Diet Coke whenever a scene requires his character to guzzle java. Then there's "Pretender" star Michael T. Weiss, who refuses to eat anything made with animal byproducts. He even reads the label of every food product used on the set to make sure no one tries to sneak anything past him. But not every star is so picky. "Party of Five" star Scott Wolf loves eating on camera and will "...eat 16 cheeseburgers if he has to," according to the show's food stylist.
