Tessa Thompson Drops Her Thoughts On Her First-Ever Plate Of Scrambled Eggs

Creed III star Tessa Thompson finally gave in and tried eggs after years of denying that shes ever eaten the dish (You can watch the clip below).

Thompson, who reprises her role as Bianca Taylor in the boxing film, told The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon that she never had eggs hard-boiled, scrambled, deviled or omletted due to misinformation.

My parents never told me the eggs that you eat would never become a chicken, and so like, morally, they should be chickens, someday, Thompson said.

She added that she then didnt trust eggs thereafter because they shapeshift.

Its suspect as a kid if you think about it, Thompson said.

I was so serious about it, I didnt even eat eggplant for the longest time because I thought it was connected, I was so committed.

In a 2012 interview with Ladygunn , Thompson said she had a hard time with all animal products as a kid and, at the time, she never had eaten a steak before fellow Creed actor Michael B. Jordan got her to try her first bite .

Thompson, whose Creed III co-star Jonathan Majors has eaten roughly eight hard-boiled eggs for breakfast , later got to try her hand at scrambled eggs with hot sauce thanks to a dish served by Fallon.

Actually, theyre not bad, she said, following her first bite of scrambled eggs.
