Travis Kelce is a man with taste.
In honor of the Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s 35th birthday on Oct. 5, the football team’s official Instagram account shared plenty of Kelce content — including a particularly tasty clip.
The reel features clips from Travis, captioned: “No better day to belt out some of @killatrava’s greatest hits 🎙️.” The video opens with Travis — who at the time sported a longer haircut — asking a Chiefs assistant on the sideline to call his mom, Donna Kelce, about what he wants for dinner.

“Can you call my mother from that phone?” Travis asks. The assistant tells the footballer that he doesn’t know if he can “use him from the side”.
Still, Travis continues, “and tell her I don’t want macaroni and cheese with plain noodles. I want gnocchi.”

He then wonders aloud how to pronounce the shape of the pasta, agreeing with an assistant on how to pronounce it correctly, incorrectly deciding on “ganache”.
“I’ll deal with it right away,” the aide deadpanned.
“Yeah, not regular noodles,” Travis says once again. “Ganache noodles.”

Fans were delighted with the resurrection of the gnocchi clip. “LMFAOOOO 😂 Mac and cheese,” wrote one user. “😂Ms. Kelce will be confused about what kind of noodles she wants,” another person joked. “This is the best thing I’ve seen in a long time,” commented a third fan.
Donna is no stranger to feeding hungry football players. She previously spoke with PEOPLE about Travis and his brother Jason Kelce’s voracious appetites growing up. Jason, 36, previously played for the Philadelphia Eagles from 2011 until retiring after the 2023-2024 season.
“They ate a lot,” Donna said of her children in October 2023. “They could sit down and eat a whole chicken in high school each — not together; each of them could finish a chicken.”
She added that she will have to buy milk all the time since her sons drink it every day and there is no way the leftovers will stick. “Even if you put your name on it and put a rubber band around the cardboard,” it would eat it, Donna said.
