Derrick Rose didn’t take any questions from the media on Sunday, and the cause was a little odd: The man, as it turns out, didn’t feel well because he ate too many Gummy Bears.
“He eats Gummy Bears and Starburst for breakfast, and Twizzlers and Honey Buns for dinner. That’s why his stomach hurts,” fellow guard Chris Douglas-Roberts said. “We tell Derrick the whole year, ‘Stop eating so many Gummy Bears and Sour Straws.’ But he can’t. … Nobody eats Gummy Bears more than him.”
It’s good to know that a guy who may be picked in the top five of this year’s NBA Draft bases his diet around Gummy Bears, Honey Buns, Starbursts and Twizzlers. I’m guessing he won’t be gracing the cover of Men’s Health any time soon.
