There is a reason why cooking shows have been on television for as long as television existed. In the simplest of terms, everybody eats! And if people dive deeper into food cultures, habits, and various diets, there is always a sort of celebration at the heart of good recipe which people can pass down across generations.
Knowing how to cook is just an overall very convenient and rewarding skill. And coming from all kinds of different cultures, all while being exposed to many more diverse eating habits and dishes, celebrities do take pride in being able to come up with their own creations, or recommend them for those who want to try something new.
The amount of celebrities who have cookbooks, or are passionate about cooking might be surprising to many fans, but there are indeed so many out there! And yes, sometimes these cookbooks might run the risk of being too detached from reality, i.e a normal household does not have the pantry that the Kardashians have. But other cookbooks contain plenty of recipes that are not only delicious and give fans an insight to what their favorite celebrities love to eat, but are also full of heart.
