Grocery shopping is an unavoidable chore for most people, but Kim Kardashian wants nothing more than to hit up a supermarket.
Because of her fame, the 37-year-old hasn't been able to do her own grocery shopping for years, since paparazzi and fans would make the trip too much of a production.
But in a new interview on The Ellen Show, Kim said the thing she missed most about being unknown is walking down the aisles and picking her own food — so much so that she begged family to rent out a local supermarket for her for her past birthday.

What a gift: The star said she hoped for her last birthday in October that someone would rent out the local supermarket for her
Kim admitted in the interview that she hasn't gone anywhere in 'a while' where she hasn't been recognized.
Being hounded by fans and photographers can make it harder to do simple things that everyone else does without a second thought, like popping into a convenience store or filling up a gas tank.
Though she seems mostly OK with her lack of anonymity, there is one thing Kim said she really misses about not being well-known — going to the grocery store.
And for her 37th birthday on October 21, she asked her family to help her get back into one.
'What I really asked for for my birthday, you guys — this sounds so crazy and it might be really bratty, and unrelatable, so I'm sorry — but I asked for, I said, "Can someone just rent out Ralphs for me for one hour?"'

She clearly knew this was an unconventional request, but said she hoped she'd get to be like a normal mom and buy her kids food.
'I just want to go to Ralphs with my kid in the cart and go through every aisle,' she said. 'I haven't been to a grocery store in years. That's my biggest misses.'
She said the desire was inspired in part by her mom Kris Jenner, who earlier this month was on The Ellen Show herself. Ellen sent Kris to Burbank's 99-cent store and then fed her lines, having her complain about the dollar price tags and brag about being a celebrity to the store's teller.
'I just miss the grocery store, like filling up your house with the groceries... that was so much fun,' Kim said, admitting, 'It sounds so stupid and unrelatable.'

Not so normal: Kim admitted that the request is unrelatable to many but said it is one of the things she misses most
She then ventured that, since no one rented the store for her for this past birthday, she may have to simply go in disguise — something Ellen said she'd very much like to make happen.
This isn't the first time that Kim has spoken about not doing her own food shopping. In an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians that aired in May 2016, she was filmed telling Kourtney that it has been a long time since her last trip.
'I haven't been to a grocery store in like four years... I just don't even know what flavor deodorants they have anymore,' she said.
While that's not strictly true — she actually took Kourtney's son Mason to a Whole Foods in 2015 — it's safe to say that she goes quite infrequently.
