2 min read- Amanda Seyfried revealed her midnight snack during LADbible’s Snack Awards, and it was not what people expected.
- Instead of chips, cookies, or candy, Seyfried went with Parmesan cheese, cutting pieces straight off a block.
- Fans in the comments were split between being deeply confused and completely charmed by the choice.
Amanda Seyfried is one of those actors people tend to put in very specific boxes. For some, she’s forever Karen from Mean Girls. For others, she’s the voice of Mamma Mia! and, more recently, she’s been tied to buzzy projects like The Housemaid opposite Sydney Sweeney and The Testament of Ann Lee. But hearing her talk about food—and not just food, but genuinely odd, highly specific food opinions—is a whole separate experience.
Case in point: her midnight snack.
In LADbible’s Snack Awards, Seyfried joined host Daniel Merrifield to talk about her favorite foods, and when the “midnight snack” category came up, she didn’t go for anything remotely expected. No bag of chips. No sleeve of cookies. No leftover pizza. No handful of cereal straight from the box while staring into the fridge light. Instead, she pulled out a block of Parmesan cheese.
“Check that out, check that out,” she says while cutting off pieces with a butter knife, quickly noting, “this is not the correct knife.” Amidst her slicing, she adds, “Part of the midnight snack experience is working for your food.”
Naturally, Merrifield had questions—mainly whether she was really getting up at 11:59 p.m. to start slicing into a wedge of Parm. Seyfried’s answer? “It’s already next to my bed.”
That, unsurprisingly, encouraged a lot of comments from viewers. “Who the f— eats parmesan after hours the absolute whopper?” one person wrote. Another said, “i deadass thought she was gonna say hot cheetos or oreos for her midnight snack and she said parmesan cheese.” Others were way more supportive of her choices: “She’s so normal and I love her.”
The internet can debate it all it wants, but we all know far worse things happen after midnight.
