During an appearance on Robin Arz\u00f3n\u2019s \u201cProject Swagger\u201d<\/a> podcast at South by Southwest, the former \u201cShark Tank\u201d star called the three-ingredient meal \u201cdisgusting\u201d but effective in getting his protein.<\/p>\n While Cuban previously followed a vegetarian diet to extend his lifespan, he recently moved to a pescatarian approach to get more iron in his diet \u2014 and shared the recipe he follows for his go-to lunch.<\/p>\n \u201cI know this is going to sound so gross and it is disgusting,\u201d the 67-year-old told Arz\u00f3n. \u201cMy new hot food are these egg white wraps\u2026 and because I need iron, I add baby clams.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cBut because they sound disgusting [and] taste disgusting, I put honey on them,\u201d he added, receiving a loud groan from the live audience.<\/p>\n The Texas-based investor claims the unusual combination not only packs in the protein, but also supports his longevity strategy to feel like he\u2019s decades younger than his biological age.<\/p>\n \u201cLiterally, it sounds so disgusting,\u201d he admitted. \u201cBut that\u2019s not even the grossest part\u2026 The grossest part is they\u2019re in a can, right? And they come with water. And so you know how when you open a can of something, it\u2019s got water in it \u2014 you\u2019ve gotta take the lid and really squish it down to get all the water out.<\/p>\n \u201cSo I\u2019m like squishing the can and the clam juice is everywhere. But otherwise, it gets on the wrap. And if it gets on the wrap, it\u2019ll ruin the wrap, and you can\u2019t put the honey on the wrap \u2019cause the wrap\u2019s been ruined.\u201d<\/p>\n Although the vile-sounding \u201cclamwich\u201d shocked the crowd, there\u2019s nothing wrong with it nutritionally, according to one expert.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s right,\u201d Robin DeCicco, a New York-based certified holistic nutritionist, told Fox News<\/a>. \u201cCanned shellfish like clams, mussels and oysters are some of the highest in absorbable iron and are also high in protein.\u201d<\/p>\n The egg white wraps contain 50 calories and 11 grams of protein, while the clams have 80 calories per can with a whopping 14 grams of protein, all combined to give him a post-workout protein boost.<\/p>\n However, DeCicco did also note that the sodium content of some canned clams can be high, while the honey can lead to a blood sugar spike compared to complex carbs.<\/p>\n There\u2019s also a notable lack of vegetables, all of which are \u201ccritical for fiber, antioxidants,\u00a0vitamins and minerals, which are all linked to disease prevention, gut health and longevity,\u201d DeCicco added.<\/p>\n Cuban says this odd meal follows his food rule that he shared with his three sons: \u201cIf you like one thing, and you like another thing, and you put them together, you\u2019re going to like it a lot more.\u201d<\/p>\n His daily breakfast is more usual, consisting of a bowl of cornflakes with honey drizzled on top and apricots to give him more fuel and iron.<\/p>\n But the unusual sandwich does fit his overall longevity goal, as he mentioned that aging has forced him to get more precise about how food, workouts and supplements affect his body.<\/p>\n \u201cAs you get older, your body responds differently to all the inputs,\u201d Cuban explained. \u201cWhether it\u2019s the workout, whether it\u2019s the food you consume [or] the supplements.\u201d<\/p>\n Cuban previously shared his top three tips to feel younger and live longer in his anti-aging-science documentary \u201cLongevity Hackers.\u201d citing walking as much as possible<\/a>, which keeps him more active than he was over a decade ago.<\/p>\n![\"Mark](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/mark-cuban-reveals-disgusting-3-124718348.jpg\")
