Ice T Explained Why He Didn't Eat Bagels Before Law & Order: SVU, and I'm Cackling Out Loud

Ice T is the subject of some hilarious scrutiny for his breakfast habits, after admitting he never had a bagel or coffee before joining Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. The 60-year-old actor and his costar Mariska Hargitay stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon [1] on Wednesday and discussed how Ice T's disinterest in bagels was exposed, and why he really doesn't think it matters.

Ice T explained that fans on Twitter went into an uproar earlier this month [2] after finding out he had never eaten a bagel or had coffee. "Everybody lost their godd*mn minds," Ice T told Fallon. "I don't know why that's so hard for people to believe."

Eventually, he gave the food and drink combo a try during a commercial for the dating app Coffee Meets Bagel. Let's just say, he wasn't impressed. "One bite, it felt like I ate a loaf of bread," he explained. Ice T doesn't understand why people make such a big deal out of his breakfast tastes, and frankly, neither does Mariska. "I didn't understand why people cared if Ice had a bagel or not," she admitted. Watch the video above to see Ice T's full (hilarious) rundown of the recent events, plus details of their 20-year friendship [3] from Mariska's point of view. Let's hope for many more interviews, and episodes, featuring these two.
