Fans have reacted to Kim Kardashian’s lack of food knowledge which played out on the second season of ‘The Kardashians.’
Fans Shade Kim Kardashian For Not Knowing What Is Tortellini Pasta-‘I’m Sick, The Disrespect’
Kim may be a billionaire which gives her opportunities that few people could only dream of. And yet, when it came to her actual food knowledge, it was quite lacking. During the course of an episode, she just so happened to be eating out amid Milan Fashion Week.
And since she was in Italy, it was not surprising then that pasta was on the menu. But when the Kardashian asked the waiter what was Tortellini, that got people’s interest piqued. Once the waiter informed Kim that it was akin to ravioli, she demanded anything that was not like spaghetti.
Once this was all worked out, Kim decided to go for Penne pasta. Her choice did appear contradictory, given that she has spoken about veganism in the past, but this was something that she cleared up. In a confessional on the show, she said: “[I am] vegan sometimes and just not other times. So, YOLO.”
Her behaviour generated a lot of talking points for the following reasons. First of all, a certain subset of people felt that she may have inadvertently offended the Italian nation with her lack of food knowledge.
After all, Tortellini is not exactly a dish that is well-hidden. Secondly, others began to shade the Kardashian as her lack of awareness simply demonstrated just how out of touch she was with ordinary people.
And this was reflected in the comments that followed on social media. One person wrote: “Sadly, I’m watching The Kardashian’s on Hulu and Kim asked the waiter what tortellini is and I’m sick. The disrespect,” while another person stated: “Watching Kim K ask what tortellini is actually painful.”
It is fair to say that this was not Kim’s finest moment, but she will not care what others have to say based on the lifestyle that she lives. So there you have it folks. What did you think about this? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
