Ben Roethlisberger Takes a Shot at The TB12 Diet

In the offseason Big Ben Roethlisberger became Skinny Ben, as he decided to change his diet, and get into real shape to help extend his career. While speaking to reporters, Roethlisberger noted that a lot of his progress has been made over the last few weeks and that he is eating a lot healthier. In the Washington Post report, Roethlisberger decided to throw a jab at Tom Brady by noting that while he will eat healthier, he has no interest in having some of Brady’s famous avocado ice cream.

Big Ben ain’t about to eat things he doesn’t like.

“So much was made a week or 2 [ago],” Roethlisberger said. “I mean, listen, as you get older … for the last 4 or 5 years, I’ve really focused on having a trainer, my body. Part of it’s football. But part of it’s life. I’m not getting any younger. I’m almost 40 years old. So you’ve got to take care of yourself. And nothing against Tom [Brady], but I’m not eating avocado ice cream. Yeah, you have a chef and you try and eat healthy. But you’re eating healthy because you want to be and feel good.”

If I’m Ben, or any NFL QB for that matter, I’m eating as much as Tom’s ice cream as possible.

Hell, I’m eating everything Tom eats.
