Shohei Ohtani, the star player for the Dodgers and one of the most admired athletes in MLB, is trending once again. But this time, it’s not because of a home run or his on field performance it’s all thanks to an interview that went viral for a much more peculiar reason, his favorite food.
Shohei Ohtani gets hungry mid-interview and reveals his favorite food
During the All-Star Game, while being interviewed in a relaxed setting, he was asked about those cravings he just can’t resist. Ohtani didn’t hesitate for a second he smiled and answered with confidence: “Meat.” The reaction was immediate. The interviewer, surprised and amused, repeated the word several times with laughter, turning the moment into a viral gem.
A simple answer that stirred all kinds of reactions
Many fans related to his honest reply because really, who doesn’t love meat? Others joked about the moment online. Of course, there were also a few negative comments from people unfairly criticizing him for not speaking in English or nitpicking his choice of words. But for most, it was a candid, spontaneous, and endearing moment.

It’s not the first time Ohtani has shared his food preferences. In past interviews, he’s already confessed his love for In-N-Out burgers, a favorite among many athletes in the U.S. And while his training and diet are notoriously strict, he’s never shied away from the occasional simple indulgence.
Off the field, Ohtani is known for his calm demeanor, humility, and genuine connection with fans. That same authenticity shines through in moments like this reminding everyone that behind the megastar is someone who keeps it real and answers from the heart.
Clips like these remind us that not everything in sports is about stats and competition. Sometimes, something as simple as talking about food is enough to make millions feel closer to their idol. And that’s the magic of Ohtani being a giant on and off the field, without ever trying to be anything other than himself.

GLOSA: Na rozchod nazrál čas. Hapal ale v Baníku končí jako úspěšný trenér
Hapal z Baníku odešel sám a nelze se mu divit. K tomu, aby po třech letech zavřel dveře od baníkovské kanceláře, měl dva velmi pádné důvody a těžko říct, který nakonec převážil.Tak za prvé. Rodák z Kroměříže měl dostat velmi lákavou nabídku ze Sigmy Olomouc. V hanácké metropoli 56letý trenér působil v minulosti jako hráč, především je tam ale doma. Svou roli, a jistě velmi podstatnou, mohla v jeho rozhodování proto hrát i rodina.A za druhé. Hapal v Baníku (samozřejmě s pomocí práce sportovního manažera Luďka Mikloška a peněz majitele Václava Brabce) tři roky úspěšně budoval konkurenceschopný tým. A uspěl.Hapal ligový tým převzal po Pavlu Vrbovi v říjnu 2022 a po počátečních útrapách vrátil Baník na konci sezony 2023/2024 po čtrnácti letech ze 4. pozice v lize do pohárové Evropy. O rok později ligové postavení Baník pod jeho vedením ještě o jednu příčku vylepšil.Ambice rostly, místo dalšího posílení kádru mu ale vedení do jeho trenérské práce hodilo vidle.Sestřih z posledního zápasu Pavla Hapala […]
Oregon vs. Indiana prediction, pick, odds, spread: No. 3 Ducks welcome No. 7 Hoosiers for Big Ten showdown
