Rebecca Adlington ANGERS Saturday Kitchen viewers with ‘fussy' eating: ‘Don't go on!’
As the former Olympian discussed her food heaven and hell, it quickly transpired that she has very strong opinions on her favourite dishes.
Rebecca began: "My food heaven is sticky toffee pudding - anything sticky with toffee would be amazing. I'm such a dessert girl."
The 28-year-old then hit a wall when she explained her food hell to host Angela Hartnett: "Well I don't eat any fish but I didn't suggest it because I wouldn't even eat it."
Sassy Angela was quick to quip back: “Great, Tom's got scallops later."

Angela admitted she found it hard to find a dish Becky would like
Rebecca then revealed what she had chosen, saying: "So I've gone for game. I'm quite fussy with meat. My sister was brought up a vegetarian so I am quite funny about meat.
"I don't like warm fruit either, I sound like I'm quite a fussy eater!" the swimmer added.
Angela snapped back: "Yeah you do actually, it's been quite hard to match dishes for you.
"She doesn't even like kale… Rebecca it's lucky you're a good swimmer."
Saturday Kitchen viewers were quick to comment on Rebecca's comments, with one posting on Twitter: "Why invite fussy eaters on #SaturdayKitchen don't like fish, don't like meat, don't eat this, don't eat that. Don't go on a food show.”(sic)

A third added: @SaturdayKitchen @BeckAdlington Please stop having guests on who won't try everything. This week the celeb won't try fish! #SaturdayKitchen."
A fort commented: "Why have a guest/chef combination who doesn't like fish & seafood dish on the show? Looks bad! Crazy planning #SaturdayKitchen @BBCOne."
