Daniel Radcliffe reveals ‘gross’ thing he had to eat during ‘Harry Potter’

Daniel Radcliffe sat down for an interview on the First We Feast show where he opened up about a particular detail from his Harry Potter days.

When asked about “one highlight and one lowlight” of the food while he played the wizard, the actor revealed, “The crazy banquet scenes at Hogwarts where there was all like, the breakfasts particularly. I was just an 11, 12-year-old child just piling on fried eggs and bacon and sausages and baked beans every morning for just… days. So, that was great.”

However, in one of the later movies, things were not so pleasant, “In one of the films, I have to eat gillyweed, that I think was black licorice lace. It was designed to look like a kind of underwater seaweed plant that I could then shovel down my throat and that was pretty gross. I remember by the third or fourth take, I was like, ‘Oh, how many more of these are we gonna do?’”

Radcliffe grew up in front of audiences as he played the young wizard in 8 movies that spanned years.
