Like his status on the track, Bolt's fondness for chicken nuggets is legendary.
At the 2008 Beijing Games he ate 1,000 chunks of chicken, helped down with sides of french fries and apple pies.
Recalling that in his autobiography 'Faster than Lightning', he wrote: 'Man, I should have gotten a gold medal for all that chowing down.'
He has also described having a fondness for KFC hot wings, Pringles crisps and a pint of Guinness.

Bolt, who won gold with an Olympic record of 9.63 at London 2012, admitted eating a McDonald's wrap on the morning of the race, as well as 'some hash browns, rice and pork.'
More recently he revealed he had adopted a healthier diet despite 'hating all vegetables'.
He said: 'I tried to bribe my chef but not only is he not bribeable, he chases me around the house and makes sure I eat what he's cooked.'

Earlier today it was revealed by Sportsmail that Bolt, who celebrates his 30th birthday on Sunday, could be in danger of being stripped of his relay gold from Beijing in 2008, the scene of his first three crowns.
One of his relay team-mates from those Games, Nesta Carter, has been named in reports as one of the athletes to have retrospectively failed drugs tests taken in Beijing, returning a positive result for the banned stimulant methylhexanamine.
Bolt insisted that, even if he should lose his medal, through no wrongdoing of his own, his legacy would remain intact.
'I don't think it would tarnish my legacy,' he said. 'I've proved to the world over and over again I've done it clean, so no stress.
'It will be disappointing, but it's life. What are you going to do? I have no control over that.'
