Last year, TikTok sparked a culinary trend: users were cooking the Jennifer Aniston salad, which she supposedly ate almost every day during the filming of the series «Friends.»
According to the trend, the salad included pistachios, bulgur, feta cheese, chickpeas, and cucumbers, among other ingredients. However, as the actress later confessed, in reality, she and her colleagues behind the set ate a completely different salad.
«Sorry, I feel like I’m disappointing everyone, but this is not my salad. It looks delicious, but it’s not the salad I ate on set,» the actress confessed in one of the interviews.
In reality, according to the star’s words, she regularly ate a salad consisting of chopped lettuce leaves, pieces of boiled or baked chicken, boiled egg whites, a small handful of chickpeas, fried bacon, and a dressing made of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard. Sometimes Aniston also added Pecorino cheese from a neighboring Italian restaurant to it.
As Jennifer also revealed, her colleagues from the show also loved this salad, so we recommend you try the recipe yourself.
