'Well, obviously,' Jimmy joked.

'That's what everyone thinks and then they think I'm being cute when I say I eat, but I'm actually not cute about it at all.'

'Some people have a high metabolism,' Jimmy later suggested. 

'I guess so, 'cause you should see my refrigerator, it's pretty insane...It's basically Indian food, Thai food, and preferably when I'm horizontal in bed.

Emily has said previously she's conscious of what she eats, but is still pretty hands-off when it comes to sticking to a strict regimen.

'I like to keep it really balanced to give my body energy and also be healthy. I cook a lot, so that really helps: You know how much salt and sugar and all of that kind of stuff you are putting in your body.'

Meanwhile, Jimmy also had a bone to pick with Emily after she told TMZ last year that the sandwiches his mother made for guests at the Emmys last year were 'not that good.'

'At that show my mother made peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for everyone in the audience. You were one of the people in the audience, you ate a peanut butter and jelly sandwich?'
