Kim Kardashian eats British staple ‘at least once a week’ after viral confusion

Kim Kardashian claims she eats a quintessentially British dish ‘at least a week’ since being introduced to it in a hilarious interview.

The reality TV icon, currently starring in the second season of All’s Fair with Teyanah Taylor and Glen Close, recently sat in with Capital Radio to discuss a junket she did last year with Grime Gran.

The social media star, whose real name is Margie Keefe, 81, became internet famous for asking Kardashian, 46, if she was a ‘big fan’ of the humble jacket potato.

In the viral clip, the mother-of-four was seemingly confused, asking Grime Gran ‘what is that?’.

Her co-star, Sarah Paulson, was giggling beside her and Kardashian continued to try and fathom what she was being asked in the Capital interview.

A year later, she returned to the broadcaster’s studios, where she was asked again about the British dinner staple.

Kardashian revealed that she and her fellow stars on the Hulu legal drama actually mention jacket potatoes.

“There is a scene and I’m bringing Sarah [Paulson] some food and I say, ‘You want a jacket potato?’ And we improvised and we did that just for you guys!”

She continued: “I have a jacket potato at least once a week!”

The American’s hilarious confession has been followed by another: she actually eats the prop food whenever she is on set.

“It's real food and I eat it the whole time," she confessed on an episode of Good Morning America.

"I'll be walking by after they cut and I'm like, 'Can I take a plate of that pie with me?'"

Niecy Nash-Betts quipped: “Do not let that tiny body fool you: She eats everything."

“I said, 'This is prop food! Why are you eating this?'", she continued with a laugh. "This is the greediest woman I've ever met in my life."

Paulson, who also worked with Kardashian on the set of American Horror Story, revealed that she often forgoes eating food on set as she doesn’t want to ‘eat it all day’.

Meanwhile, Watts added: “It's a thing called continuity. If you eat it in the scene, you have to keep doing it."

Kardashian claimed she was informed about continuity and advised to ‘pace’ herself when it came to eating.

“Because I'm new to this, they tried to tell me, 'Hey, continuity. Pace yourself. Eat a grape or half a grape because you're gonna have to do that the same time 50 times.

"By the end, I am like, 'What did I get myself into?' But I love it."

The first three epiosdes of All’s Fair season two are now streaming on Hulu.

New episodes are set to drop on 11, 18, 25 November, with the finale landing on 2 December.
