Whoopi Goldberg Mistakenly Ate a Bag of Cat Treats After Vatican Visit

Whoopi Goldberg told the hilarious story of how she ate a bag of cat treats thinking they were pretzels after meeting Pope Francis

Goldberg, 68, recalled the hilarious mishap on the Monday, June 17, episode of The View, explaining to her cohosts that she mistakenly ate a bag of Temptations cat treats last week, thinking they were pretzels after she got back from a trip to Italy, where she met Pope Francis. Noting that her daughter, Alex Martin, played a part in the mixup by leaving a bag of cat treats next to Goldberg’s Dot’s pretzels, the Sister Act alum explained that she got up in the middle of the night to grab a snack. While many social media users appreciated Goldberg’s honesty in sharing an embarrassing story, some fans were divided about whether the topic deserved a segment on the daytime talk show.
