Jeff Goldblum has an unusual way he prefers to eat his meals.
Appearing on the Table Manners podcast, in which a celebrity guest sits down for a home-cooked meal and conversation with British mother-daughter duo Jessie and Lennie Ware, the actor, 73, said that he doesn’t save dessert for last.
“I like everything together,” he explained during the June 9 episode of the podcast.
“In Italy … they say, ‘First course, second course.’ No, no, no, give it to me altogether!” he added.
“I have the fish and the pasta together. And as a matter of fact — listen to this — I like to have dessert at the same time,” Goldblum continued. “That’s why I like room service. I say, ‘No, no, don’t save the ice [cream]. Don’t save the sorbet till later. Bring it up now, ’cause I will go savory, savory, sweet. Back to savory.”
The Jurassic Park star also said he sometimes even gets more “radical” when he is eating meals at home.
“I take everything out of the refrigerator at the same time. I just take it all out,” he explained, adding that he often doesn’t reheat his food before eating.

The podcast revelations weren’t the first time that Goldblum has opened up about his eating habits.
In November 2025, the star revealed that his role in the Wicked films — which feature themes of compassion towards all creatures — inspired him to give up meat.
“It’s changed me,” Goldblum said during an appearance on the U.K. show This Morning. “After doing this movie, we talked about the animal cruelty. I stopped eating meat and poultry.”
“I’m happy. We need the world to work for everybody on earth and every creature too,” he added.
