Even though Bravo Daddy/Watch What Happens Live host Andy Cohen has decided to keep his two kids’ faces away from social media, he’s still been gifting us with chuckle-worthy parenting play-by-plays, specifically from his precociously hilarious son, Ben Cohen. Andy recently shared his adorable (but probably frustrating) morning encounter with the four-year-old on Instagram. Ben has never been more relatable.
Andy Cohen’s son Ben just loves his snacks
Imagine Andy’s surprise when he caught Ben red-handed, or rather, gingerbread-mouthed, devouring a sugary masterpiece gifted by none other than Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos.
“Ben, I don’t like coming downstairs and finding you with the gingerbread house in your mouth. Do you understand me? Why do you do that?” Andy’s video began. He then raised an eyebrow at his miniature confectionary criminal.
Nonchalantly, Ben, in all his adorableness, quipped, “It’s just so yummy.”
“I’ve told you not to eat the gingerbread house. I’m sure it is yummy, but I don’t think you’re supposed to eat it, Ben.” Then with a puzzled expression, he couldn’t resist asking, “What does it taste like?”
With the innocence only a four-year-old can muster, Ben replied, “It tastes like something so good, like a cookie or something.” Clearly, he had stumbled upon the eighth wonder of the culinary world.
Andy, now utterly befuddled, pondered aloud, suspecting it would taste “like a stale cookie.” Probing further, he asked Ben if he knew the meaning of “stale.”
“Stale means hard, like old. Does it taste hard and old?” Andy questioned.
In a heart-melting twist, Ben lunged in for a hug, declaring, “No, it tastes delicious like daddy!”
The comments section erupted in laughter, with Khloé Kardashian confessing, “Ben is me! I am Ben! Ben is US!!!! His explanation deserves the gingerbread house.”
Below Deck alum Kate Chastain even crowned Ben a genius, noting, “The flattery of ‘Delicious like daddy!'”
Even Vanderpump Rules’ own James Kennedy’s heart was melted – he commented with a simple “❤️❤️❤️.”
This isn’t Andy’s first rodeo when it comes to Ben’s eccentric eating escapades. He’s posted before about Ben hiding to enjoy an entire bag of chips for breakfast and once shared Ben’s jaunt with emotional support bacon on their car rides to summer camp. This kid clearly has superior taste. Good thing he has the perfect connection to snag a judge spot on Top Chef someday!
