Breaking Bad: Aaron Paul ate blue meth because he had a reason (VIDEO)  

The candies were delicious!

Bryan Cranston told a little behind – the-scenes story of Breaking Bad , involving his co-star, Aaron Paul . More specifically, Cranston was a guest on the show ” Hot Ones ” and stated that Paul ate a large amount of fake blue methamphetamine ( it was actually blue candies ) that you saw in the series, in order to stay awake and endure the filming .

Cranston, once again, confirmed that the blue meth his character Walter White was cooking was in fact candy, and delicious at that. So, one day, to cope with the needs of filming, Aaron Paul ate too many “to be in the cheetah”.

His statements were as follows:

We were shooting a scene and I saw Paul take too many blue candies and start eating them. And I tell him: You can’t eat the product! Then he told me that he was so tired that he wanted to consume some sugar to stay awake.

Cranston also said that on that day, Paul kept telling him to try some of the blue candies, which he finally gave in to and liked very much.

As the actor of the award-winning series said, many times the filming lasted up to 17 hours. Watch the Hot Ones interview through the player below.
