Al Michaels is on a winning streak. His opponent? Vegetables.
艾尔·迈克尔斯正在连胜。他的对手?蔬菜。

The sports commentator, 78, opened up about his lifelong aversion to the produce in an interview with CNN, telling journalist Chris Wallace that he has gone his entire life without — at least, as Wallace put it, “knowingly” — eating a single vegetable.
这位78岁的体育评论员在接受美国有线电视新闻网采访时公开了他一生对蔬菜的厌恶,他告诉记者克里斯·华莱士,他一生都没有吃过一种蔬菜,至少,正如华莱士所说,“故意”吃一种蔬菜。

In the excerpt of CNN’s Who's Talking to Chris Wallace, which premiered Friday on Max, Michaels said that his veggie-less diet traces back to his childhood.
在美国有线电视新闻网《Who's Talking to Chris Wallace》节目的节选中,迈克尔斯说他的素食饮食可以追溯到他的童年。

“I was born when my parents were 18,” Michaels told the broadcaster. “So [my mom] just let me have the run of the course. And I always pushed the vegetables away. To this day, no.”
“我出生时,我的父母才18岁,”迈克尔斯告诉bbc。“所以(我妈妈)就让我自己跑了。我总是把蔬菜推开。直到今天,都没有。”

He continued, “And I guess what I’ve proven, Chris, is that man does not need vegetables to survive.”
他继续说,“我想我已经证明了,克里斯,人类不需要蔬菜来生存。”

When asked if it is possible that, if he actually tried it, Michaels may actually enjoy a “non-objectionable” vegetable, such as a carrot, the commentator replied, “Oh, please.”
当被问及是否有可能,如果迈克尔斯真的尝试过,他可能真的喜欢一种“不令人反感的”蔬菜,比如胡萝卜时,评论员回答说:“哦,拜托。”

“No, that’s an objectionable vegetable,” he continued.
“不,那是一种令人讨厌的蔬菜,”他继续说。

And how does he know without ever having tasted the orange produce? “I look at it [and] I just don’t even like the look of it. And I surmise what it might taste like, in terms of the texture of it.”
他没尝过橙汁怎么知道?“我看着它,我甚至不喜欢它的样子。我猜测它的口感会是什么样子。”

“It just doesn’t look like something that would go down well,” he added.
他补充说:“这看起来不像是会被接受的事情。”

Barstool Sports shared an excerpt of the clip on X, and users had a lot to say about Michaels’ anti-veggie lifestyle.
Barstool Sports在X上分享了这段视频的摘录,用户们对迈克尔斯的反素食生活方式有很多话要说。

Some people lauded the commentator, writing things like “Impressive” and “Real heroes don’t wear capes.”
一些人称赞这位评论员,写下“令人印象深刻”和“真正的英雄不穿斗篷”之类的话。

Others questioned his story (“How is that possible!?”), while others related to his aversion.
其他人质疑他的故事(“这怎么可能!?”),而其他人则对他的厌恶感产生了共鸣。

"He just like me for real," one user wrote.
“他真的很像我,”一位用户写道。

This isn’t the first time Michaels has opened up about his dietary quirk.
这不是迈克尔斯第一次公开他的饮食怪癖。

“I don’t eat any vegetables,” he told The New York Times in 2012. “None. I have never eaten vegetables.”
“我不吃任何蔬菜,”他在2012年告诉《纽约时报》。“没有。我从来没吃过蔬菜。”

He added, “As I grew older, I just would not even look at them. If I died right now, I might be the human being who lived the longest without ever eating a vegetable.”
他补充说:“随着年龄的增长,我甚至不愿看他们一眼。如果我现在就死了,我可能是不吃蔬菜而活得最长的人。”
