Do the Kardashians really eat the way they do?

It's my trash tv guilty pleasure so don't judge me 😁 I've been watching some of their episodes today and whenever they eat there's always so much food, a lot of indulgent foods too (high in carbs/sugar etc) and the table is covered with multiple (delicious looking) foods and sugary cocktails.
I'm not naive enough to know they rely on surgeries/meds/whatever else and they probably waste a lot of food at restaurants especially. I don't really know where I'm going with thread 😁 i was just pondering.

They probably eat really tiny portions 'for show' but eat well most of the time along with personal trainers helping them keep in shape.

The film crew probably eat all the leftovers.

I'm a bit jealous of their indulgent meals they always look amazing whether they are filming in the house or at a restaurant. I see them being served huge bowls of pasta for example and just wonder if they actually eat it along with several side dishes 🤔

Slim active people have to eat quite a lot of food so they don’t lose weight.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they did eat it. They are all always running around and so busy plus they regularly work out. They’ll need the fuel

Haveanaiceday · 27/10/2025 19:01

OK I've not watched much but I normally see them eating salads and going on the treadmill, which I think is more likely to be their regular lifestyle.

Fallshealing · 27/10/2025 19:02

That's true. They do appear busy all the time on the show

I’ve seen clips where they talk about the food being taken away for other people to eat post-shoot. The one time that didn’t happen I think Kourtney or maybe Kendall was saying it was terrible so much good was going to waste.

Coffeeishot · 27/10/2025 19:06

I think they have deals that is why the food is lying around , when I watched when they were on E television they just used to shake salad boxes 😂

Coffeeishot · 27/10/2025 19:08

At the end of US programmes they have the product sponsors in the titles they don't show it on uk tv.

Fallshealing · 27/10/2025 19:08

Oh yeah the famous salad shakers! 😅

Martha Stewart was a guest in their show and she commented later they all eat very little

Fallshealing · 27/10/2025 19:13

It is odd that they make it look like they go a restaurant and order so much food. They could just have a regular meal if they are having lunch for example, I don't think anyone would care.

With their bank accounts they can eat what they want and have it sucked out of them in a few weeks time.

That is probably what they do .

My guilty trash tv is the Real Housewives of Orange County and Beverly Hills. They also will always have extravagant, copious food on offer, even when hosting tiny gatherings. I don’t think they eat more than a morsel.

mondaytosunday · 27/10/2025 19:19

They don’t eat more than anybody who is active, I guess they just don’t overeat and it’s not oricessed food. They seem to eat a lot of those big salad take outs though they have chefs. And those big jars of biscuits and sweets! Bet they never touch those. Such a waste - the food looks great! Hopefully the crew get to eat it!

Isthismylastchance · 27/10/2025 19:22

I'm sorry but I don't understand why you would want to watch tv shows like this.

How can it possibly be good for anyone's mental health and grasp on what is normal behaviour?

.And actually giving people like the Kardahians any sort of societal influence beggars belief.

Coffeeishot · 27/10/2025 19:22

Does kourtney let her kids eat the table food ? She is all vegan and organic now isn't she ?

janehopper · 27/10/2025 19:46

I used to be addicted to Newlyweds with Jessica Simpson and Nick whatshisface and it was mind boggling how much they were in restaurants or ordering takeaways, just always eating hugely calorific food. And yet she was slim as anything. I never really understood 🤣

That's why it's always good to understand that we all enjoy different things.

The Kardashians is just a guilty trash tv show that I enjoy and as I'm going through a really hard time right now it's good to have something you can switch off to that's light.

That's where we differ OP.

I'm all for watching something light.

But I woud put the Kardashions in the annoying, depressing, disturbing and upsetting category.
Definitely not amusing, feel good or uplifting.

Coffeeishot · 27/10/2025 20:25

I haven't watched for years but there is nothing wrong with a bit of trash telly, we all.know it is vapid rubbish.

Edited

But again that's your opinion, I don't find it annoying or depressing. Let's continue to enjoy what we enjoy and not judge eachothers choices.

If you are starting threads about what the Kardashions actually eat or don't eat you have definitely crossed a line from watching it as trashy meaningless " entertainment" to something that actually has some significance in your life.

In the same sad way the Katie Price devotees and the Beckham adorers obsess.

Not at all, I was merely pondering if that's what they eat, I'm not taking it that seriously and that comes across in my op and in subsequent posts 🤷‍♀️ It's really not that deep.
