Margot Robbie stepped out on the red carpet as an Oscar nominee Sunday night for her role in Bombshell. But long before she took Hollywood by storm with her acting talents, Margot had a different job. The Australian native once worked at a sandwich artist at Subway, and she was apparently pretty good at it.

"I think I was really good at it though, because I you know would really spread everything out to the edges evenly — the right amount of everything," Margot revealed on a recent episode of Hot Ones.

For that very reason, it's hard for Margot to step foot back into one of the sandwich chain's locations.

"It kills me," she admitted during the interview. "Like, I actually don't go that often anymore, because I watch them make it badly — and I'm upset."

Margot stepped back into the shoes of Harley Quinn this weekend in her latest feature film, Birds of Prey. And life imitated art on screen, by virtue of Harley's obsession with egg sandwiches. Margot also loves one of the breakfast bites — when she can eat it.

"I'm allergic to chicken egg whites," the actress disclosed during the interview. "So I love egg sandwiches, but they give me migraines if I eat them. So when we did the scene, they actually had to make them with duck eggs, which are very delicious."

When it comes to food, Margot means business. The actress also revealed that she once won a spaghetti eating competition by throwing back four pounds of bolognese in an hour.

"There was a time frame. That made it more difficult," she recalled. "Otherwise, I don't know how much I could have eaten. Probably not that much more, because I was really sick. It was a lot of spaghetti."
