I could eat an apple with peanut butter, and that could constitute my dinner." But now as a parent, Kylie revealed that now as a mom, "we have to eat three meals a day" rather than be able to put together a low effort meal for the family. "The decision-making is overwhelming. I will tell you that," she continued. "The need for being prepared. It's just — it's so much. It's so much. It takes up so much of my brain." 🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬 In the same episode, Kylie also addressed the strict restrictions she plans to implement on her daughters when it comes to cell phone use with a plan called the "kitchen phone."
