By his own admission, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson eats ~800 pounds of cod a year, or roughly, 2 pounds a day.

That's a lot of fish.

But on Twitter, he revealed to Tech Insider deputy editor Dave Mosher today that he actually hates the stuff, and had to stop eating it.

Up until just now, when he told us he had stopped eating it, the Dwayne Johnson cod diet was a big source of speculation. Was it safe to eat all that fish? (We were told it was fine.)

Did he ever like it? His Instagram from 152 weeks ago suggests absolutely not. "Looks like crap?" he captioned this photo. "Well, tastes like crap, too."

It even inspired one dad to overhaul his own diet and fitness and spring for a lot of cod for 30 days.
