Lamb is also said to be part of his diet, although rich and heavily seasoned dishes are generally avoided.</p> <p class="isSelectedEnd">His meals are also accompanied by simple salads containing vegetables such as tomatoes and cucumbers. Reports suggest that he generally avoids sweet desserts, rich pastries and other indulgent foods, except on special occasions.</p> <p class="isSelectedEnd">As for drinks, Putin reportedly likes fresh juices, kefir and herbal drinks. Traditional Russian drinks, including beetroot and horseradish blends, have also been reported as part of his diet.</p> <p>One reported exception to his otherwise disciplined diet is pistachio ice cream, which has often been cited as a personal favourite.</p>
