Gwyneth Paltrow needs fried fix

Gwyneth Paltrow has become obsessed with fried chicken.

The Oscar-winning actress - who once stuck to a strict macrobiotic diet - recently spent time in Nashville to film new movie 'Love Don't Let Me Down' and was very impressed with the local cuisine.

She said: "Never have I met such warm people, heard such good music, eaten so much fried chicken. I could go on and on."

The mother-of-two was a regular visitor at the local restaurants, and singled out two in particular for their delicious deep fried delights.

She added on her GOOP website: "At Sweet's, the fried chicken is superb. crunchy and not oily on the outside and juicy on the inside. At the Loveless Cafe, their food is delicious, a traditional southern heart attack."

Another eatery to tantalise Gwyneth's taste buds was the Whiskey Kitchen, where she was won over by most of the dishes on their menu.

She said: "The sweet potato fries are delicious, the fried chicken sliders do the trick, the biscuits are the best I sampled in the city of Nashville, and the oysters on the half shell come with a shot of Bloody Mary. What more could you ask for?"

Last month, it was claimed Gwyneth was comfort eating because she missed husband Chris Martin and their two children while she filmed in Nashville.
