In the photo Kohli shared in June 2016, his younger self, wearing a red checkered shirt, is seen biting into a burger, with a plate full of more burgers placed before him. “Throwback to a time when I would eat everything. No wonder I turned into a chub boy. Feasting on burgers in this,” Virat Kohli had written in his post on X in 2016. Check out the post on X here: American burger chain Burger King was among those who responded to Swiggy’s post, plugging its own iconic Whopper burgers. “And once you bite into a Whopper, you’ll forget about every other burger,” Burger King India wrote on X.

He had revealed last year that 90 per cent of the food he eats is steamed. “Ninety per cent of my food is all steamed, boiled. No masala. Only salt, pepper, and lime, that’s how I eat. I am not a big fanatic on taste… Salads, I’ll enjoy with a bit of dressing every now and then,” he told Star Sports in an interview. “Pan-grilled with a bit of olive oil or whatever it is. That’s the most I go. I only eat dal. I would eat rajma, I would eat lobiya… As a Punjabi, can’t leave them”. The former Team India skipper and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) star said he can control his tastebuds and that most of the times, he knows “exactly what is going into” his body.
