Kim Kardashian baffles fans as she admits to not knowing what tortellini is

Kim Kardashian left fans baffled as she dined out in Italy and became confused by some of the items on the menu.

The 41-year-old Skims founder was joined by some of closest pals as they jetted off to Italy for Milan Fashion Week in the latest episode of The Kardashians.

Kim enjoyed a meal out during the trip, but was left questioning what a fairly common type of pasta was.

"Definitely want the artichoke," she told the waiter when he took her order before asking: "What is tortellini?"

"Like a ravioli," he replied, making the shape of the pasta with his hands. Kim then asked if they had anything that wasn't spaghetti and later decided on ordering penne.

Another said: "Did Kim really just ask what tortellini is? IN ITALY!?"

A third fan wrote: "did kim kardashian ask that waiter what tortellini is in this week’s episode or am i tripping," while another added: "Kim K asking what tortellini is while in Milan…. C’mon Kimberly." [sic]

"Kim not knowing what tortellini is… girl," tweeted another.

Elsewhere in the episode Kim took time out to shop for a gift to give to her then-boyfriend Pete Davidson, gushing that he has the "best heart".

“I feel like people, they have this, like, idea of him that he dates all these hot girls — and he does. But he’s just the sweetest, most thoughtful person,” she said of the 28-year-old Saturday Night Live star.

Pete and Kim started dating in October 2021 but called time on their whirlwind romance just nine months later.

Following their split, Kim has admitted that she isn't ready for another relationship just yet and said she is currently dealing with raising children North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm as well as trying to finish law school.

During a recent appearance on Live With Kelly And Ryan, Kim remarked how she had juggled with the idea of stepping away from men in showbiz.

Kim suggested she should try someone like a doctor or a scientist before confessing: "I'm just not ready...I just want chill."
