The 'Black Swan' actress has been following a vegan diet for most of her life but said that she did not insist that Hemsworth stop eating meat before their on-screen kiss. She added that although she didn't insist, it was still a "considerate gesture".
According to CCN, Hemsworth does not really consume meat every half hour, but "he does eat 10 meals a day, around 4,500 calories" to maintain his bulk physique.
