Colin Farrell used to be addicted to Rice Krispies.
The Irish actor couldn't stop eating the breakfast cereal as a youngster, and admits he has always had an obsessive personality.
Farrell, who has had well-documented problems with drink and drugs, said: "I used to eat Rice Krispies with no milk and loads of sugar. They didn't have Rice Krispies rehab when I was a kid! They probably do now. I was obsessed with them. I definitely have an addictive personality."
Farrell checked into the Crossroads Centre, a rehab clinic set up by Eric Clapton in Antigua, after filming 'Miami Vice' in 2005.
The 31-year-old star was inspired to seek help after hew saw a picture of himself and realised his lifestyle was taking a toll on his health.
He recalls to GQ magazine: "I saw a photo of me taken at the wrap party for 'Miami Vice'. I looked awful. My eyes were dead. That night I got on a plane and checked into rehab. I was just broken."
Farrell has previously admitted to experimenting with heroin, ecstasy, cocaine and amphetamines, but since going to rehab he claims his only vice is smoking.
