According to Men's Health, as of April 2021, Batista no longer eats poultry. He’s completely meat and dairy-free and follows a mostly plant-based diet. Although he still eats fish a couple of times a week, he intends to become a full-time vegan in the future.

Dave Bautista discussed his current diet with Men's Health in October 2021:

"The only thing that’s killing me is because I grew up on chicken adobo, which is a very common standard Filipino dish. And it’s one of the few dishes that I make constantly. I make it for myself, I make it for my friends. And now I still make it for my friends, but I have to just sit there and watch them eat it, and it’s torture." (h/t Men's Health)

Of course, during his time with WWE, he was trying to eat as many calories as possible whilst working out regularly. Later, he cut out dairy products when he found it worsened his asthma. As of 2010, the former World Heavyweight Champion cut out red meat and pork.
