Actor says natural milk is the way to go

“Entourage” star Jeremy Piven is a funny man, the say. Piven is also the kind of guy one can always expect to come out and say whatever comes to his mind, whether that might offend someone or not. It’s no wonder then that the star is now talking about how he thought he started growing breasts because he was drinking soy milk, as CelebEdge can confirm (citing a BANG report).

According to the star, he had a period when he replaced normal milk with soy milk with his cereals in the morning. However, at one point, he started noticing strange things occurring with his body, namely that he started growing what is commonly known as “moobs” (as in, male breasts), and that is usually something no man wants unless we’re talking steel pecs that make a tight sweater look good. This wasn’t the case with Piven, so he just gave soy milk up.

“I was the guy that dabbled in soya milk, but now I’ve found out soya milk has enough estrogen for me to grow breasts; I had to put the soya milk down. It was a very confusing time.” the 44-year-old star tells BANG, as cited by the aforementioned publication. So ended Piven’s short-lived adventure with soy milk, the alternative to the popular dairy product.

Whether this has anything to do with it or not, in the same interview, the “Entourage” star also opens up about his other culinary choices, saying that he’s far less adventurous when it comes to his meals than he was when he decided to make the switch to soy milk. In fact, the only time he can think of in terms of taking chances with his food was on a visit to Japan, when he ate something he still can’t describe but that tasted good.

“I don’t go too far out with my choices. Although when I was in Japan, I had a traditional Japanese breakfast that consisted of some quail eggs and you actually eat the head of some strange fish. It all looked like Jurassic Park! I don’t think I could be a samurai, but I ate it.” Jeremy Piven adds.
