Procter: It's Such An Indulgence

It's time to chow down--Miami style.

Aida Mollenkamp, the food editor of Chow.com, visited the set of CSI: Miami to see how members of the cast and crew eat during filming. She first caught up with Rex Linn (Frank Tripp), who was filling his plate. "The food is great," he said, patting his stomach. "I got a stomach to prove it." The actor was preparing to film a big scene after his meal, so he planned to eat light--but he couldn't resist getting a piece of steak. "Gotta have rare," he said.

Linn's costar Adam Rodriguez (Eric Delko) took Mollenkamp to a room with plenty of sandwich fixings. "This is where the hungry people come," he said, putting on some disposable gloves and making a sandwich for himself with plenty of mustard. "Sandwiches sustained me for a very long time," he added. "I'm partial to them."

Emily Procter (Calleigh Duquesne) tries to eat healthy on set, even with so many tempting food choices around. "I try and keep it healthy because they like to put me in very tight pants," she explained. However, she couldn't resist a sweet treat. "My absolute favorite dessert is the chocolate-covered strawberries," Procter said. She went on to admit, "What I usually do is I steal them, and I steal enough for lunch and for dinner."

"Believe it or not, my sister's a chef," Procter added, "so I grew up in this family where that's what we do. We just eat." The actress also likes to take care of other people when they stop by. "I have to say the first thing I always do with people when they come to the set is always like, 'Have you eaten? Are you hungry? Do you want some food?' Because it really is just such an indulgence to have so much food around," Procter shared. But providing all of that food for the cast can cause some minor wardrobe issues. Procter explained, "And then they're always like, 'Why are your pants tight?' And I'm like, 'It's your fault.'"
