Kanye West, legally known as Ye, said on a recent podcast that he has never read a book, according toHuffPost.

Ye said reading is "like eating Brussels sprouts for me."

"And talking is like getting the Giorgio Baldi corn ravioli," he added.

Ye has beensightedmultiple times at the Los Angeles-area restaurant Giorgio Baldi, and it is a favorite of his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian. (But there doesn't appear to be corn ravioli on the menu at present.)

He was speaking on a podcast called "Alo Mind Full," which dives into "mind-body wellness" and is hosted by Alyson Wilson, Alo's vice president of brand innovation.

"I actually haven't read any book," he said on the show.

The episode dropped a day afterRolling Stonereported that parents whose children are at his Simi Valley, California-area private school, Donda Academy, areasked to sign non-disclosure agreements.

Details about the private school (asRolling Stonenotes) are sparse.

Yemoved to break out of his contract with Gaplast week so that he could be free to open his own Yeezy stores and is still expressing frustrations abouthis longer-standing deal with Adidason Instagram.

He posted a photo of what appears to be a contract that references Adidas and Gap and wrote "Welp I guess the war's not over" on Sunday.
