Kourtney's famed avocado pudding became one of those quarantine specialties you had to try back in 2020.
According to , the reality star health guru eats her pudding with every workout.
Dr. Hazel Wallace posted a recent Instagram where she gave Kourtney's notorious pudding a try, and she wasn't impressed.
Nutritionist, medical doctor, author, and host for The Food Medic Podcast, Dr. Wallace, uses her Instagram as an honest, healthy living platform.
Kourtney's recipe only calls for three ingredients: avocado, coconut milk, and honey.
While others have adapted it and added other ingredients, Dr. Wallace decided to try it as is in her video.
She blends one avocado, one cup of coconut milk, and two teaspoons of honey.
The consistency is similar to a cup of yogurt.

Dr. Wallace tries one bite of the pudding, and her face goes sour.
She gives the pudding a 3/10.
Dr. Wallace not only explains that the taste isn't great, but the snack itself isn't sufficient in nutrients post-workout.
In her caption, she wrote: "Avocados are a great source of unsaturated fats but as this is positioned as a post-workout meal/snack, it’s actually not the best option."
She explains how carbohydrates and protein are what help to "replenish glycogen stores and help to build and repair muscle", but those three ingredients alone don't satisfy that.
Dr. Wallace suggested adding a banana and cacao powder to the pudding to make it more of a protein shake, or you could just make avocado toast.
Despite the buzz around the pudding, most of Dr. Wallace's viewers seemed to agree with her.
"Maybe as a spread with something but I’d definitely not eat it alone," one person wrote.
