Honestly, I will listen to pretty much any insights into Jennifer Lopez's life, so when her chef recently shared some anecdotes about her eating habits with Us Weekly, I just about busted out my pen and paper to take notes.
Kelvin Fernandez, who gets the very brag-worthy job of being chef to J.Lo and Alex Rodriguez, said that he constantly asks clients about their dietary preferences and allergies because he doesn't want to mess up. One of the things he's learned to steer clear from when cooking for Jennifer is surprising: salmon.
I know Jennifer doesnt love salmon, so if Im cooking salmon for the [table], I always got to do a sea bass or a halibut or cod for Jennifer because shes just not a fan of the texture and the taste of salmon, he told the outlet. Good to know! I suddenly don't like salmon either!
But Kelvin said that he sometimes keeps food in the house that Jennifer doesn't necessarily love because her kids like to eat it. Case in point? There's always fruit in their fridge despite the fact that Jennifer is not a big "fruit person."
Sparkling water, always fruits and vegetables, like strawberries, even though Jennifer is not a big fruit person, he said: The kids love their fresh berries. Theres always greens like spinach, cucumber and celery to make green juice. They love starting their day with a green juice. Eggs is always the biggest one. Turkey bacon is always the biggest one.
But keeping everyone happy isn't always easy. Kelvin said that he started serving Jen her own individual plate after he put rice on their family's menu in her lead up to Jennifer's Super Bowl halftime show performance.
The next day shes like, Kelvin, you served me rice. And Im like, No, no, no, no, no, there was chicken, there was salad. You grabbed the rice! he told the outlet.
OK, OK, I think I got it. No rice, no salmon, no fruit, but chicken and salad are alright...I say while ripping off pieces of banana bread. Hey, no one ever said it was easy to eat like J. Lo.
