21 Celebrities Who Quit Smoking

8. Anthony Bourdain

The famed chef quit smoking not because he was sick of smoking. He basically quit because he is afraid of heights. He said that once he had a child, he had to go smoke outside on the staircase of his building. However, his apartment was on the eleventh floor and he really hated going outside to smoke.

And according to Bourdain, he still misses it. He said that quitting smoking has not improved his life in any way, and furthermore, it hasn’t even improved his palette. Some people say that when you quit smoking, you smell and taste food differently, but according to the star chef, that didn’t happen to him.

But smoking was the least of his worries. If you’ve read Bourdain’s book, then you know that he was a heavy drug user, so quitting heroin and other hard drugs was probably a more important step for him than quitting smoking.
