Gwyneth Paltrow a big-time foodie

Actress Gwyneth Paltrow loves food and says she has inherited it from her late father.

The 41-year-old, married to singer Chris Martin, has often expressed her will to open an eatery and has also emphasised on the importance of eating healthy.

"I have always loved food, I was raised by a foodie. I love to cook and eat," Beach magazine quoted Paltrow as saying.

The actress credits her love for food to father Bruce Paltrow, who died after suffering from cancer and pneumonia in 2002.

"My father was obsessed with good food and he passed it on to me," she said.
