If you had the chance to ask your favorite celebrity any question, what would you ask? At Allrecipes, when we get that opportunity, it should come as no surprise that we're always wondering what's on their plates. We love to learn what actors, television hosts, and other professionally busy people eat on their days on, days off, and all other days in between.
Savannah Guthrie is no exception. The "Today" co-anchor, The New York Times best-selling author, and self-proclaimed "recovering attorney" is one busy woman. Her days start early—and we mean really early—and when she's not on duty at "Today", she's busy keeping up with her daughter, Vale (12), and son, Charley (9). So what's on her menu?
When we sat down with Guthrie for the Fall 2023 issue of Allrecipes magazine, she told us all about how she tends to mix it up at dinnertime. Living in New York City, she frequents Mediterranean, Thai, and Mexican restaurants in her neighborhood, but also still loves a good burger, fries, and milkshake ("I love a milkshake more than is reasonable for someone my age to love."). But when it comes to lunch, she keeps it simple.
"Embarrassingly, I eat [the same thing] for lunch every single day of the week." And she wasn't exaggerating—Guthrie even had it in her purse when we chatted. What's more—it's not a gourmet offering or one from a niche NYC deli. It's from a fast food chain we all frequent. So which sandwich secured the spot? None other than a breakfast offering from Starbucks.
Guthrie turns to the Bacon-Style Turkey, Cheddar & Egg White Sandwich from Starbucks every day at lunchtime. On first glance, it seems like the ideal grab-and-go lunch alongside a coffee in the morning. Since we at Allrecipes wholeheartedly believe anything good enough for Guthrie is good enough for us, I decided to give it a try.
