Body positive influencer Karina Irby has revealed one rather unusual dish she was given as a child.
The 34-year-old shared a video to her Instagram story on Saturday, while celebrating her mum Kim’s birthday with a lunch.
Speaking from the restaurant table, Karina admitted that her mother used to feed her ‘brains’ when she was a baby.
‘I’m sitting here with mum for a beautiful birthday lunch and she’s sitting here and she’s like “oh yeah when you were a baby I used to feed you brains”,’ Karina revealed before her mother replied with: ‘She loved it.’
Karina continued: ‘She’s like “I just wanted you to have a healthy baby brain, so I would feed you brains out of a can?”‘
Protesting, Kim said that the dish was not from a can, but rather a jar.
‘No it wasn’t a can,’ Kim said. ‘I think it was like baby food like a jar of baby food. And she loved it.’
Laughing, Karina shot back a self-effacing reply, with: ‘Well, it didn’t work.’

The owner of popular swimwear brand Moana Bikini looked stylish at the lunch in a white blazer over a black top, accessorising with a pair of gold pendant earrings.
The admission comes after Karina was kicked out of a Gold Coast café in June after she rocked up to host an impromptu swimwear photoshoot.
The body positive influencer shared a video of her and her friends arriving at Palm Springs Café in Burleigh Heads without a booking and began filming an ad for her activewear line.
Karina explained she thought the venue would have no issue with the shoot because she had purchased a cake and coffee from them.

‘I thought I could order a bunch of yummy food and drinks, eat and have the girls representing Moana Smile Club at this local café,’ she began.
Unfortunately for Irby, café staff were not at all thrilled and immediately told her and her friends to leave.
‘We were asked not to shoot there and got kicked out of the café,’ a furious Karina told her fans.
However, Palm Springs Cafe owners Cohen and Josh had a different version of events and told Daily Mail that Karina was not ‘asked to leave’ but rather asked to book the shoot at an acceptable time.
‘We don’t allow professional photoshoots during business hours out of respect for our guests. However, we hire our space out for professional shoots, it is a service we offer,’ Cohen said.
