Emmy-winning actress Sarah Jessica Parker says her iconic character Carrie Bradshaw is completely opposite from her, but they do share one thing in common: a dislike for parsley.

Speaking recently at a Q&A with Evan Katz Ross, hosted by Threads, the actress said there has always been “a very clear line” between herself and her character.

Parker spoke about her distaste for the common herb and how it eventually blended into Sex and the City and And Just Like That…

“It must've been just being around the writers and then hearing me say to a server, ‘Hey, so parsley — all other herbs are fine. It’s just parsley,’” she shared.

However, Parker noted that it’s very specific because she has “always felt like there was a very clear line actually between myself and Carrie, but that was one that was strikingly familiar.”

Aside from parsley, the star was willing to eat just about anything on camera, even during marathon filming sessions.

Parker also shared that she and her co-star Cynthia Nixon “made it our business to eat every single thing that was put in front of us. We ate everything, and we'd be shooting those coffee shop scenes in the original show for hours and hours.”

“And then they'd break us for lunch, and the props team would come and start clearing it away, and they would refresh it after lunch,” she added. “And no matter where we were in the meal, we were always like, ‘No, no, no, no, no, we'll take it with us.’”

“Free food!” she joked.
